Designing Your Herb Wall: Placement and Layout

Most culinary herbs love bright light and gentle breezes. South or east exposures work well; supplement with full-spectrum LEDs if needed. Keep leaves dry between waterings to discourage mildew and keep aromas crisp.

Think top, heart, and base notes. Top notes: mint, basil, lemon balm for lively pop. Heart: thyme, oregano for warmth. Base: rosemary, sage, lavender for staying power, grounding your daily aromatic experience.

Wellness, Mindfulness, and Community

Spend three to five minutes daily checking leaves, trimming a sprig, and breathing the scent. Micro-routines reinforce consistency, making care natural and calming while keeping your fragrant herb wall vibrantly alive.

Seasonality and Year-Round Fragrance

Use full-spectrum LEDs, slightly warmer root zones, and a pebble tray for humidity. Choose hardy rosemary and thyme for backbone scent while protecting tender basil varieties from drafts and temperature swings.
