Assorted culinary herbs in pots—basil, rosemary, thyme, mint, and oregano—ready for planting and harvesting.

Herbs

Fragrant, edible, pollinator-friendly, and made for everyday harvesting.

Fresh herbs make a garden feel alive—fragrant, useful, and easy to harvest. Our Herbs collection is curated for Bay Area home gardens, patios, raised beds, and kitchen-side planters, with options for sunny spots, partial shade, and container growing.

Whether you’re building a culinary herb corner (basil, thyme, rosemary, mint), a pollinator-friendly herb patch (lavender, oregano, sage), or a low-water Mediterranean vibe, these plants deliver quick wins: better flavor, better fragrance, and a garden you actually use.

Choose by sun exposure, growth habit (compact vs. spreading), and how you’ll harvest (cut-and-come-again leaves vs. woody sprigs). Need help combining herbs with fruit trees, roses, or drought-tolerant landscapes? We can help with plant selection and layout so everything thrives together.

Frequently asked questions

1) What herbs grow best in the San Francisco Bay Area?
Many Mediterranean-style herbs thrive here, especially in well-drained soil and sun: rosemary, thyme, oregano, sage, and lavender. Basil does great with warmth and regular water, while mint prefers consistent moisture and partial shade.

2) Can I grow herbs in containers on a patio or balcony?
Yes—most herbs are excellent in containers. Use a pot with drainage holes, quality potting mix, and avoid letting the roots sit in water. Group herbs with similar water needs together.

3) Do herbs need full sun?
Many herbs prefer 6+ hours of sun (rosemary, thyme, oregano, sage). Some tolerate part sun (mint, chives, parsley in warmer microclimates). If your area is foggy, choose sunniest placement possible.

4) How should I water herbs?
Water deeply, then let the top layer dry slightly before watering again. Mediterranean herbs hate soggy roots—drainage matters more than “more water.”

5) How do I harvest herbs so plants keep producing?
Harvest regularly but gently: take no more than about one-third of the plant at a time. For basil, pinch above a leaf set to encourage branching.

6) Are these herbs good for pollinators?
Absolutely. When allowed to flower, many herbs become pollinator magnets—especially lavender, oregano, thyme, rosemary, and sage.

7) Do you offer garden design or planting help for an herb garden?
Yes. We can help you plan an herb layout (sun, spacing, containers vs. in-ground), select varieties, and coordinate delivery for a clean, high-success install.

8) Do you deliver herbs locally?
Yes—local Bay Area delivery is available, and Local Free Delivery over $199 applies when your order qualifies.
