Anyone grow an herbal garden? What types of medicinal herbs are you growing?
I usually grow basil and the other spice types. I was thinking of adding echinacea and calendula this year. Reply to this discussion / Report this discussion

I also have mint, I keep mine potted though. It grows like crazy! My aloe vera plant is used quite often at our house too.
Last year I tried to grow chamomile, with no luck. I am trying again this year.

    It's worth remembering that if you are growing mint, it can take over! If you plant it out in a bed then isolate it by putting it in a big pot first (without drainage holes otherwise the roots will escape that way).

    Is it really difficult to grow chamomile?
    I know most herbs don't need too much other than a simple taking care of but some of them probably need a lot of attention.
