Herbs

A herb corner works best when it stays small enough to water, cut, and replant without turning into a constant rescue project.

Weak stems, pale leaves, and thin aroma often point to a light problem long before the plant fully collapses.

Woody herbs survive winter in pots more reliably when drainage and exposure are managed before cold rain settles in.

An indoor herb shelf works when the setup favors light, airflow, and constant harvest over decoration.

Basil stays fuller when pruning follows the branching points instead of stripping the biggest leaves at random.
