This classification is based on the location of your garden. So choose the right herb based on the location you choose, so that you can maximize the harvest.

1. Vertical herb garden.

Vertical garden is most suitable when you are limited by space. It helps you to grow more herbs in less space. You can arrange them in different tiers so that each tier can be used for particular type of herb, which will help to maintain it properly; at the same time each tier can be harvested separately.
Are you planning to remodel your kitchen?, then lets find some space for arranging these boxes on the kitchen wall. You can use it for planting herbs and once completely grown and ready to harvest, your can enjoy your salad using herbs grown in your kitchen.
Isn’t it awesome?
