A kitchen garden isn’t complete without an array of aromatic herbs. Fragrant and attractive, aromatic herbs are also highly versatile. Some can be used to impart delicious aromas and flavors to meals, while others make lovely additions to medicinal and herbal teas.
Planting aromatic herbs outdoors helps create a welcoming environment for bees and other pollinators. In turn, these help boost your garden’s production. What’s more, certain aromatic herbs may even repel common garden pests like mosquitoes, weevils, aphids and slugs.
Here are some examples of aromatic herb plants for sale at The Grower’s Exchange
