Re: Growing Herbs In Pots: What Do You Advise For Spacing Between Plants In The Same Container? .

Question

I have a couple of large rectangular containers (one is an Earthbox) that would make good herb planters. I love your website, by the way. Thank you!

Answer 1

It depends on the herbs you choose and how tall and wide they will get. The plant tags should give you that information. If not, you can look up the plants on our gardeningknowhow.com site to find the size of the mature plants and space accordingly. In a container, it's OK to place them closer than specified for ground use.
