Herbs
- Basil - plant in September
- Corriander - plant seeds directly in the soil in spring
- Mint - perennial (grow in tub! weedlike! 30 to 100 cm tall)
- Parsley - biennial (but cooler (autumn) planting time might help it’s roots settle in)
- Oregano - perennial, sow in the spring (slow germination)
- Lemon Grass - plant during the wet season (summer)
- Chives - perennial, sow from Spring to Autumn
Our building’s just installed some rainwater tanks, so when it rains I’m going to ask the body corporate if I can have one of the empty beds for a little herb garden. This is my planting plan so far.
is this the recommended planting schedule or just your own?
It was a brief compilation of advice from around the internet for recommended sowing times for each herb I use a lot of. (In warmer parts of Australia.) I haven’t tried it out yet. I should run it by my folks. :)
