Spring Seedlings
Not sure where to start when planning your home made herb garden? Here are some of the best herbs to grow in your upcycled Folláin jars:
🌿 Basil – Loves warmth and bright light, perfect for pastas and pestos.
🌿 Coriander – Great for salads, curries, and fresh garnishes.
🌿 Chives – Hardy and easy to grow, adds a mild onion flavour.
🌿 Mint – Thrives indoors and is ideal for teas, desserts, and drinks.
🌿 Thyme – A low-maintenance herb that’s perfect for slow-cooked dishes.
Once you start, you won’t stop—growing your own herbs is rewarding *and* delicious!
