Dig Planting Holes
Because you are starting herbs from bedding plants and not seeds, you will need to create larger planting holes. Dig each hole to about twice the width of the root ball of the new plant.
Add Plants to Soil
Space the bedding plants about 18 inches apart to give them room to spread out and grow. Tip: Place taller herbs, like sage, rosemary and marjoram, toward the back of the garden, and place parsley and cilantro at the front.
Label Herbs
Add labels to each of your freshly planted herbs to make them easy to identify when cooking.
