 ====== Herb Spiral ======
-No English translation, yet. Go to the **[[:de:experiments:herb_spiral:start|German Version]]**.
+//Herb spiral: a spiral or snail-shaped bed that provides different humidity and
+sunny locations for different herbs.//
+Here you can see a herb spiral built of bricks. Bricks are particularly suitable because they
+are weatherproof and very stable on the one hand and completely recyclable on the other.
+The special thing about a herbal spiral is the division into different layers. At the very bottom
+is the wettest layer. This is where plants that prefer a lot of water grow, such as tarragon.
+The middle layer is already somewhat drier and is therefore suitable for optimal for herbs
+like coriander, calendula and borage. In the uppermost and driest layer you can find
+lavender, sage, rosemary and oregano. Herbs prefer a rather sandy and nutrient-poor soil.
+Because of their flowers, the herbs you see here are an optimal food source for bees. Enjoy
+smelling the herbs, which not only many people like, but also the bees!
