Herb Garden Plants
The most popular new herb garden plants are of a more exotic variety, as more American gardeners plant things like shiso, ginger root and stevia to spice up their gardens and dinner plates.
The trend is linked to a growing interest in global cuisines added to an increased interest in home cooking. Growing your own herb garden is an excellent way to save money on exotic herbs, which can sometimes be very pricey in the grocery stores. An herb garden can provide the home chef with a supply of fresh herbs all summer long. Nurseries around the country are stocking a wider variety of herbs as both experienced and novice gardeners embrace the edible landscape concept. Even those who don't have room for a vegetable garden can find space to grow some herbs in pots.
