I just want to know what are the necessary herbs, you know, ones I'd be using a lot of spells. I don't mind the cost, as long as I can find them in my local garden centres. Asked by serenastarfire - Fri Aug 22 20:25:09 2008 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments A. I would recommend sage for smudge sticks, wisdom and healing. rosemary and thyme are good for purification and protection spells, basil for creativity, balance. These are all good all round cooking herbs too. Answered by skimum - Fri Aug 22 22:12:30 2008 Can I grow an indoor herb garden that is not in a kitchen window? Q. I live in an apartment on the 14th floor and don't have a kitchen window or a yard to grow an herb garden. I do have a large sliding glass door to offer light. Is it possible to grow herbs from seed in my place? I do have a balcony, but Virginia gets too cold at times. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

My favorite is the long planting box that hangs on the balcony rail. If it gets too cold bring them in and lay a plastic sheet on the rug to protect the floors, or you could put plastic bags over them outside to protect from freezing on a cold winter night. You'll probably end up replanting the whole thing every year anyhow, which is what I do. Ends up being about $15/ year to have fresh herbs to cook with. Answered by ShavenLlama - Mon Mar 26 17:19:03 2007 What's a creeping herb for groundcover that can grow in shade?
Q. I want to grow it under my trampoline (which has a jumping surface that's kind of like mesh, and lets some light in, just not bright direct sunlight). Is there such an herb? Good smell (and the ability to walk on it) like thyme is a plus. Asked by Naturepants9 - Sat Jul 5 12:50:36 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. Hi: Creeping Thyme is a good answer. Here are some other suggestions: Corsican Mint Pennyroyal Creeping Golden Marjoram Creeping Rosemary These are just a few. Also consider Ajuga as a great shade ground cover. I will link you to the spices and herb section of my website. There is additional information that may help you out. Good luck to you and have a great day!
