Product Information

Make sure your chosen container is between 15 and 20 centimetres deep so there’s plenty of space for good, strong root to develop, and make sure there are drainage holes in the bottom of the container and a drip tray underneath. Some herb planters are designed to fit onto windowsills, which might be useful for crops you cook with often. Small plastic pots are perfect for starting with, but it's worth considering repotting them to larger pots once they grow a little larger.

Now that you know how to create, grow, and care for your window garden, look through our Gardens Department to pick up any tools, plant food, and accessories you need to look after it. Until the herbs begin to bear leaves, it can be very tricky to distinguish your parsley from your sage, rosemary and thyme.

When growing herbs indoors, the minimum size container you should use for growing herbs is a 6-inch pot. Too much will “burn” the plants, and will decrease the production of oils that make the herbs taste so good. Visit your local garden centre or look on the Internet for perennial herb plants like sage or thyme.

For those that can't find such a medium readily available, it can be created by combining perlite, compost, and regular garden soil. For those looking to plant all their herbs into a single planter, why not opt for the self-watering planter? I simply reach out the kitchen window for a last-minute addition to our dinner salad—a rain-washed sprig of cucumber-flavored salad burnet. Wait at least a month before you begin harvesting though, to avoid stripping the plant of its vitality prematurely. For an attractive display, group several small herb pots together on a window sill or kitchen counter.

Spruce up your culinary dishes and your kitchen décor at the same time by growing a windowsill herb garden. It’s as if the only “safe” food has to come from mass-produced and packaged ingredients from huge warehouses and wrapped in plastic.

Weather resistant: This planter is frost and crack-resistant for cold climates and is treated with UV inhibitors to minimize fading.

In this scenario, you should choose the greenest and freshest looking leaves of your herb and strip them off gently but firmly. Tall and distinctive, the tapered pot planter is the perfect addition to any front entrance or poolside patio. I try to place thirstier plants toward the back and middle of the boxes, where the soil stays moist the longest. Made from powder-coated metal, the pots are pre-drilled with drainage holes while the tray helps protect indoor surfaces. Once you see new growth (or once seedlings reach at least 6 inches tall), you can start using your herbs.
