Each herb has different preferences

Mediterranean herbs like sage, thyme, rosemary, rue and lavender love heat, drought and full sun. That's why they get the warmest and driest place in the garden. Also, these are types slightly sensitive to frost and should therefore be a bit protected. Other herbs, on the other hand, need neutral, humus-rich and fresh soils. They grow best in a mixed culture in the garden bed. These include, for example, caraway seeds, fennel, borage, marigolds, mustard, savory, parsley and chives. Mints, on the other hand, like moist soils and Penumbra. In contrast, subtropical species such as lemongrass, ginger, basil or chilli need a light shade, but also a lot of warmth. They are best in a warm or greenhouse in the winter garden canceled.

Tips

Especially lovage and Angelica grow into huge, shady plants and also need a lot of nutrients and moisture. They are best placed in their own bed.
