Herbs are versatile and aromatic plants grown for their culinary, medicinal, and ornamental uses. Whether cultivated in gardens, containers, or windowsills, herb plants are prized for their flavorful leaves, health benefits, and ability to attract pollinators.

• Growth Habit: Typically small, leafy, and bushy—varies by species (annuals, biennials, or perennials).

• Leaves: The primary part used; can be soft or woody, with a range of textures, colors, and scents.

• Flowers: Many herbs produce small, delicate flowers that are often edible and attract beneficial insects.

• Aroma: Distinct and often pungent due to essential oils; varies from sweet and floral to spicy and earthy.

• Light: Most herbs prefer full sun (6–8 hours daily), though some tolerate partial shade.

• Soil: Well-draining soil is essential; herbs generally thrive in moderately fertile to poor soils.

• Water: Regular but moderate watering; overwatering can lead to root rot.

• Climate: Herbs adapt well to a variety of climates; many can be grown indoors year-round.

• Culinary: Add flavor to dishes, salads, teas, and marinades (e.g., basil, parsley, thyme, mint).

• Medicinal: Used in traditional remedies for digestion, relaxation, and immunity (e.g., chamomile, sage).

• Aromatic: Fresh or dried herbs are used in sachets, oils, and natural cleaners.

• Ornamental: Great for borders, windowsills, and mixed container gardens due to attractive foliage and blooms.
