Herbs have long been stalwarts of the garden, imparting fragrance and health, as well as flavor, to beds and borders, walks and paths,or pots and containers. However, today's garden designers are rediscovering how herbs can shape a garden and (since they grow so quickly) be a key visual element in any new garden scheme. The Romantic Herb Garden not only discusses the many ways you can use herbs, but looks at them both as a backdrop to and the star of any garden scheme.
