Hello,

I would like to grow some herbs indoors.

Could anyone recommend how I should go about this, and how I could
maintain a ready supply of the herbs throughout the year.

Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

Regards

Jane

All joking aside, growing herbs indoors is not a very satisfactory meth=

I see you are posting from the UK. Provided you live in a temperate por=

outdoors year round. The climate in my zone 8 Pacific Northwest garden
should be very similar to much of that of Britain and I enjoy rosemary,=

sage, oregano, thyme, marjoram, and chives year round. Parsley is prese=
