Give herbs a boost with greenhouses

Provide a suitable place for your herbs to grow. With small greenhouses, you can have a small herb garden right inside your home. Put them near a window where they can get plenty of natural light and flourish. It’s also easy to tend to your plants because the greenhouse's front can be opened with a single hand. The included rod lets you prop the lid slightly ajar, giving your plants a welcome dose of fresh air. And to fully embrace the gardener lifestyle, surround yourself with as many greenhouses as possible.

Show off your herb collection in a vertical garden

Vertical gardens are a great way to spruce up your home while saving valuable square footage and providing quick and easy access to your favorite herbs. This design for a mini herb garden can be used to turn any wall into a lush green oasis.

Herb garden on the go

For those with limited house space, consider a portable herb garden. You can use a rolling cart or trolley to grow herbs. This solution is especially useful if your kitchen gets varying amounts of sunlight throughout the day. Simply moving your herb garden toward the sun will keep it healthy. Plus, it is a chic addition to your kitchen decor and can be moved around without much hassle.

Put herbs on display with hanging planters

Hanging planters are a creative way to use vertical space while displaying your herb collection. These planters save counter space and add a touch of natural beauty wherever you want to hang them. To ensure your herbs get enough light, hang them from hooks or ceiling mounts near a window or light source. Moreover, herbs suspended in elegant hanging planters create a unique and visually appealing display that will leave your guests in awe.
