hello,

My new house has a barfe patch of soil beside the back door. It is
North facing and walled on the South and west sides. I'd like to make
it a herb patch but don't want to kill all my plants putting them in.

I have some herbs in pots in my greenhouse, mint, chives, coriander,
sage, parsley which I'd lik eto put in + any others anyone can advise
may survive here.
Any help appreciated.

Geoff


Where are you? Does the plot get direct sun and for how long?

Probably not, you wouldn't want too much sun on your barfe patch it might
attract flies.
