8 Herbs That Are Good to Grow in Containers

There is no substitute for fresh herbs when it comes to creating a dish with that special garden-fresh flavor. Herbs are wonderful plants to grow in containers. A good reason for having an herb garden in your kitchen is the convenience of having them right there within reach when you need them. I have compiled a list of my top 8 favorite herbs.

1/ Cilantro

I love cilantro because there are so many uses for it. I use cilantro in my homemade salsas. It is also a common herb that is used in Thai cuisine. It grows very quickly so make sure you harvest often before it goes to seed. You can extend your growing season by planting a few seeds to start with and then a few more every so often so that you always have some growing.
