Herb Garden Kits Make Gardening Easy

Looking for a perfect gift? Wrap up one that continues to keep on giving throughout the year

. Whether for a child or an adult, herb garden kits are sure to delight. Excellent for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, and any other memorable event, the recipient will have a reminder of their special day.

Never out of season, they can be used indoors all year round. They provide a learning experience as well as being highly functional. Even a young child gets pleasure from watching the seeds sprout into something that can be used for eating or decorating.

There is one big problem with buying an herb garden as a gift. After the purchaser takes it home, they are too tempted to keep it, and will have to buy another one to give away. Herb garden kits are just too irresistible.

They are easy to set up, and a beauty to enjoy. Some kits are so advanced that they practically take care of the plants without needing any human intervention. Even a young child can easily follow the directions. Take the device out of the box, insert the pre-seeded pods into the specially designed area, add water, and plug it in. How much simpler could it be?

Since the mechanics part of the herb garden operation is handled by modern technology, there are only two things that need to be decided; what to grow and where to grow it. A favorite among herb enthusiasts are the herb garden kits that contain culinary seedlings. Basil, mint, and sage are among the most popular kits.

There is nothing fresher and better tasting than picking herbs right off the plants to be used immediately in recipes. Another highly desired combination kit is one containing plants used in specialty teas. Adding three teaspoons of Chamomile or Rose Hips leaves to boiling water creates an excellent cup of relaxing tea.

Although setting up the kits are error free, there are a few pointers to remember as the plants grow. The lighting may need to be adjusted so the tops of the plants don't touch the bulbs. As a plant becomes lush, it may need additional support.

The same manufacturers that make the herb garden kits also design trellis systems. Because some plants may need to be pruned, a small set of shears should be purchased. They will also be handy for clipping herbs in the kitchen for those special recipes. Because the modern kits have taken the work out of indoor gardening, a good herbal cookbook is the only other suggested item.
