Order your favourite fresh herb from Ahern!

Add some deliciousness to your garden with our variety of fresh herbs. Nothing tastes better than fresh chives or a sprig of thyme from your own garden. Starting a herb garden, indoors or out, is a super fun and educational activity for the whole family. In most cases, kitchen herbs are easy plants that can be planted in almost any corner of the garden. However, they are most happy in a sunny spot. It will easily become part of your daily routine in the spring to pick mint for your tea, trim some basil for dinner, or add a little rosemary to your cocktail. We always suggest planting them near enough to the kitchen, maybe even in pots or window boxes, where you have quick and easy access to them. And at only €2.99 each they are excellent value.

A few of our favourite herbs

Once you're used to cooking with fresh herbs, you'll never want anything else. You can taste the difference exceptionally well. Mint is one of our favourites. After all, mint is delicious in your dish, but also your hot or cold drink. In addition to being tasty, it is also a beautiful, strong and easy plant that grows very quickly. Place mint in a sunny spot and ensure it stays moist, especially in summer.

A little piece of advice: Does your herb plant have flowers? It may look nice, but it often means that the taste of your herb becomes a bit more bitter. There are exceptions to the rule, so always check the information about the specific plant.

Thriving herbs

Herbs are a fantastic addition to your (vegetable) garden. You can also put them in a container on your terrace or balcony. It can be challenging to tell your herbs apart when they start thriving. Use those charming herb labels and signs to determine which one is which. Mix and match large and smaller herb plants for a varied look. However, be careful with mint. This fast grower tends to literally and figuratively overshadow other plants. Parsley and celery are also not fond of each other's company. For more tips on combining herbs, you can visit our plant centre in Limerick.
