Seasonal advice, simple steps, and a calm monochrome aesthetic to grow your herb oasis
Start with basil, cilantro and parsley. They enjoy warm days, so place near a sunny window or bright balcony.
Provide regular watering. Mulch lightly to retain moisture and protect roots from heat.
Snip leaves regularly to encourage bushier growth and prevent legginess.
Protect pots from cold drafts; batch-plant seeds for a fresh start as days lengthen.
Prefers bright light and warm temperatures. Harvest leaves from the top to encourage a fuller plant.
Invasive by nature; grow in containers to control spread. Regular pruning keeps flavors strong.
Likes cooler days. Pinch flower heads to extend leaf production and avoid bitterness.
Hardy and forgiving. Harvest from the outer leaves to encourage continued growth.
Use dark containers and light soil to emphasize contrast. Provide 6–8 hours of bright indirect light for most herbs.
