Best Growing Southern Colorado Herbs

Herbs are a great option for planting something that's fairly easy to care for. You can grow herbs either inside on a sunny window sill or outside in the ground or in a pot. The best place for herbs to grow is near your house, so when it's time to cook you can easily cut what you need for the freshest herbs possible. At Brady's Garden & Spa Center we have a huge selection of herbs to choose from:

• Basil 
• Oregano
• Lavender
• Chives
• Cilantro
• Dill
• Peppermint
• Parsley
• Rosemary
• Sage
• Thyme

Each season we have something new, so make sure you come into Brady's Garden & Spa Center to take in the sights and smells, and try growing a new veggie or herb this season!
