It is simple to grow one herb plant in one pot. You can let your imagination go and try several herbs in the same pot. This adds more interest to your containers, such as pops of color and texture.

If you want to try this, you would choose herb plants that have similar sod and watering needs and then purchase those that will look good together or have similar uses—like putting all your culinary herbs together.

Cultivate these herbs that will do well in your pots:

• Sage: With nearly 750 varieties, hopefully you find at least 1 sage herb for your herb garden that you will like, because it comes in a variety of colors and sizes. Sage does well from seeds, which can give you a head start on the growing season if you start early indoors. Cultivate your sage in nice, big pot that has nice drainage and put it where it can get lots of sunshine. This is one of those that I plant for the leaves, so I snip off the flowers as soon as they bud to help the herb focus on the leaves, which I then clip off at the stem whenever I’m cooking.

• Scented geraniums: I enjoy the bright, vibrant colors and scents of the scented geranium. I have an unnatural attachment to red geraniums, so I’m not the correct one to ask, but I’m positive that the other kinds are nice too. Although they look very similar to floral (non-herbal) variety, these also grow well in containers that you can pick up at any nursery, home improvement or discount store. They can take full sun and well-drained sod. You can harvest the stems and leaves for cakes and teas. The petals are lovely in pressings.

• Cardamom: Cardamom is a great herb for you if bad breath is an issue for you. This large houseplant-like plant will get big in the summer and will need to be brought indoors during winter months to persist, so use a large pot. Not only will the seeds add a hint of India to your rice and chicken meals, you can also add it to soups and stews. In addition to taking care of your bad breath, cardamom can assist with your flatulence (not that you have flatulence) or least make your clothes smell nice.

• Lemon verbena: There are so many wonderful ways to use lemon verbena that I would call it indispensable in my plant garden. Don’t worry with seeds. I suggest that you get your lemon verbena and get it established in a pot with a wide brim that will support its stem development. This plant likes full sun and well-drained earth. Do not let your herb get too dry. The leaves are often the first part of the herb to suffer and these are the parts that you will use.

There are plenty of other herb plants that you can plant in your container plant garden, including thyme, mints, lavender, goldenrod, fennel and carrot.

Good luck with your plant gardening. Be sure to let me know how your herb garden grows.

In growing herbs in pots, you have probably seen those plant creepers that have formed in the main bodies of your plants, as they try to grow from the pots or places in your garden.

Make sure that your plant have started establishing its root system already before you transfer it. There are also some cases wherein the core is a requirement. The creepers that can breed via the planting of leaves are very hard to remove once they've already spread.
