Planning for an herb garden design can change your small outdoors into an amazing space. You’ll surely be the envy of many, having those wonderful fragrant herbs in your garden. And if beauty weren’t enough, these wonderful herbs can also make their magic work for kitchen and medicinal purposes.

A fantastic herb garden design does not require you to be an expert designer.Simple planning accompanied by a little research will do the trick. In designing your layout for an herb garden, few factors must be taken into considerations and you can start realizing these by asking questions to yourself. What types of herbs would fit to my small space? What style should I make? The answers to these questions are all part in planning your herb garden design

First thing that you must consider is the type of plants that you wish to grow because this greatly influence your choice of design. And of course, the location of your plants must be taken into account. For this, a sunny place is the most practical selection.

An ideal design for your herb garden can be inspired by a modern type that looks like a wagon wheel with a fountain in the middle and the herbs are planted in each wedge. Even if you have inadequate space, this will sit in just fine and won’t make your garden too crowded.Depending on the shape of the lot, you can use geometric shapes with groups of plants divided by walkway that be made of stone or bricks. You can even get that old-world feel by putting a bench in your garden.

Herbs are very sensitive and they are even selective with the type of soil where you’ll grow them. Better check your soil, make sure it’s abundant enough. And to be sure, add organic fertilizers. Plant the herbs properly, following a certain format or pattern. The tallest herbs can be planted at the center while the smaller ones can be planted in front or around according to the plan. Style in planting can also add character to your entire view of your garden so give emphasis to this.

The rest of the elements will an add-on to the entire design. You don’t have to focus on them since you are only starting your design anyway. Do not get frustrated either if you cannot perfect it the first time. It’s nice if you can have it perfected on first try, but that’s not expected at this stage.

What’s crucial here are just the herbs to plant – their type, color and sizes which should suit the small space of your garden. And if you practice, then you’ll definitely perfect your design.
