    We’re doing our first garden this year including herbs (everything in containers) and I’m curious about the perennials.  Our lemon balm is looking a little sad and I know it’s one that will take over (as I think all of them probably would if given the chance) could it be that the pot is just too small?  Do you have to split up those type or do they self-regulate their size to the container?

    Great tips…thanks!

    Do you bring Rosemary indoor in winter



  4. Martimus Maximus on October 29, 2021 at 10:49 am

    Nice video ! Thank you. I’m growing herbs for the second year and loving and learning as I go. Didn’t know that oregano comes back and I re-planted some this year, so I’m sad about pulling out the roots, but I’m in a colder zone, so I’m not sure if they’d come back anyways. Also, growing basil, parsley, sage, thyme, rosemary, and lavender.

    How do you keep your herbs healthy?
    Do you use any fertilizers nd pesticides?

    Does all the water ruin your deck? I was told not to put the containers on the deck



  12. Truelove on October 29, 2021 at 10:59 am

  13. Algebruh_m8 on October 29, 2021 at 11:02 am

    So my first frost date is Nov 13. I’m a garden noob so what does that mean for my Cilantro and Mint plant? I just checked and my Peppermint plant leaves are getting droopy. 🙁 But in the bottom I see many leaves thriving and growing but the top leaves are getting droopy, kinda scared about this. Also my Cilantro finally germinated!



  14. Koshka on October 29, 2021 at 11:03 am

    You caught me. I put mint, thai basil, sweet basil, cilantro and parsley all in a teeny tiny container for my windowsill.



  15. Authentically Amber on October 29, 2021 at 11:04 am

    Beautiful herbs! 💗

  17. Sunny in the Garden on October 29, 2021 at 11:05 am

    @Rainbow Gardens Question for ya: Are you able to overwinter any of your herbs (I mean – outside) or do you start everything over every year? And.. How do you cope with bugs with the plants you overwinter indoors?



  18. Lauren Romero on October 29, 2021 at 11:06 am

    Can i plant my Garlic Chives & Chives together ?



  19. nikiluvsyou on October 29, 2021 at 11:08 am

  27. BIBLE STUDIES on October 29, 2021 at 11:15 am

  29. Brooke Busby on October 29, 2021 at 11:18 am

    Do you just put one oregano plant in your container? Also do you cover them for the winter



  30. Books on October 29, 2021 at 11:18 am

    I’m a Master Gardner Inter, I graduate this spring. This will be my first year growing my herb garden. So far the chocolate mint is my favorite.



  33. Wendy Harrington on October 29, 2021 at 11:21 am

  40. gary mullins on October 29, 2021 at 11:27 am

    Love you garden! We are in mountains of Eastern Tennessee. I have trouble with perennials freezing out over winter. I do have sage and chives from last summer, but rosemary never makes it.



  41. Mio Angel on October 29, 2021 at 11:28 am

    Could you tell me please, what size of pot can I use for cilantro, parsley and basil? Thanks for sharing! SUB…



  42. Thankful to Live! on October 29, 2021 at 11:31 am

  48. Valiant Thor on October 29, 2021 at 11:41 am

    Here is a challenge for you Rainbow Gardens: Try growing ginger / turmeric.  Do a search for Health Benefits of Turmeric to see why I suggest this.  Then do a Turmeric Paste search for an ideal way to consume it.



  49. Spartan 117 on October 29, 2021 at 11:42 am

    love you container herbs garden… here in Trinidad we call the Cuban oregano (Spanish Thyme) …it’s used especially in fish dishes….. but I am sure gonna try it your way.. thanks Donna….



  50. Grace Life on October 29, 2021 at 11:44 am

    Rainbow Gardens what a beautiful healthy selection you have. It would be a dream to have so many herbs around my garden. Please can you tell me, (I didnt notice any cobwebs.) Do you get many spiders in any part of your garden because it doesnt look like you have.Yet your plants still look healthy.
