Aromatic plants or herbs are herbaceous plants with leaves that, as the name suggests, release fragrances and aromas. They have various uses and properties. They’re widely used in cooking and are great for repelling insects or odors.
If you think it’s time to have a home garden, the good news is you don’t need a “green thumb” to keep this bowl on your terrace or balcony! Just follow the instructions below, observe and learn, but above all, have fun planting, harvesting, and caring for this little herb garden. Harvest ingredients and seasonings for your meals straight from the source. It’s a great activity for the whole family. Kids love it! It also makes a fantastic gift for any occasion.
Specifications:
– 1 Rounded terracotta (clay) bowl, about 30cm in diameter.
– 6 herbs/seasonings already planted, based on available stock at the time of order.
CUIDADOS
Light: Most herbs used in cooking enjoy sheltered, sunny spots. 4 hours of direct sun a day is the “bare minimum” for most, though some—like mint—tolerate shadier environments.
Watering: Moderate—only when the soil starts to dry out, as overwatering is a common cause of death for herbs (and more!). Always check the soil moisture with your finger before watering. Watch out for saucers that collect standing water, as they promote root rot. Choose pots with drainage holes.
Soil: Use a light, fertile, and well-draining substrate. There are specific herb mixes, but an outdoor substrate with expanded clay at the bottom for drainage also works.
TIPS
– Keep in mind that the smaller the pot and the less soil/substrate the plant has, the faster it will dry out, requiring more frequent watering. Conversely, if the plant is grown in the ground, it will resist dry spells better. Similarly, if your herbs get direct sun all afternoon in the summer, they’ll need more water. If they only get direct morning sun, they need a bit less. In winter, even less!
– Prune regularly to stimulate growth and prevent the plant from flowering and seeding prematurely (common with coriander and basil, for example).
– When harvesting, cut whole stems from the base.
– But remember, many herbs have an annual life cycle, so don’t be surprised if your plant starts to wither when the cold arrives—like coriander.
WARNING! Representative photo:
– The photo shown is a specimen photographed when the product was added to the online catalogue and is for reference only. The bowl provided will be similar to the one pictured, though the herbs/seasonings planted may differ based on the following variables:
1) growth cycle stage: plants may vary in shape, appearance, or size.
2) current stock: the Online Store team will choose the 6 best available herb/seasoning varieties, ensuring no duplicates at the time of order.
– If you’d like a specific herb/seasoning, or even a specific set of 6 herbs/seasonings in the bowl, add that request to the notes before checkout. The team will try to meet your request whenever possible.
