Fall is the best season to get your garden ready for next year. If you enjoy having trees and flowers around you, now is the time to get to work. Moreover, it seems that you have also the opportunity of planting culinary herbs. Instead of going to the market, you can have them in your garden.
You should not be worried about the temperatures. There are a lot of herbs, such as oregano and tarragon, they can survive the cool temperatures of fall. This happens because the soil is still warm and they are able to send their roots there. Of course, going to the market could be easier, but it is better to have things from your own garden.
First of all, you know they are healthy. Many vegetables/fruits on the market are produced using dangerous substances for our health. Moreover, it will be less expensive. For example, you only have to plant culinary herbs once and they will return every year and they will grow bigger. There are a lot of perennial herbs that can use in your garden, during this time of year. They are cheaper and they do not need much of your time. If you want to spend less money, you can try to buy them from people who already have herb gardens. Ask for a small division and in a year you will enjoy your own garden.
There are a few things you should know before starting this. You will have to water the plants until the ground freezes. Do not forget about them in the spring, when they will need your help again to grow. Another important thing is to locate them in a place they will receive sunlight. It is said that any plant should get six to eight hours of sunlight in a day. Many people also forget to leave space between the plants.
Gardening is one of the most interesting hobbies you could have. Not only you can have vegetables or herbs made by you, but it also has benefits for your health. You eat better, you are doing a physical activity by taking care of your garden and you will spend more time outside. It is not too late to get it ready for next year. There are a lot of perennial plants that can be used in this period and they will survive the winter.
