Convenience changes how often a plant is used. Put the herbs you reach for beside the door, not at the far edge of the garden.
The everyday five
Basil, parsley, rosemary, chives, and mint cover quick sauces, salads, drinks, and garnishes.
Grow what fits the life you want to live—not simply what fits the space.
Design for clipping
Use wide paths, clear labels, and pots that are easy to reach with kitchen scissors in hand.
