====== Herb Spiral ====== | ====== Herb Spiral ====== | ||
+ | //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! | ||
