Buy Your Containers Early

The Best Time to Buy Herb Garden Pots

The best time to buy your herb pots may surprise you. Buy them long before you think of buying your herbs! If you buy your pots super early, say in the winter or after the gardening season, you will have the largest selection of pots to choose from and be able to fit the pot the best location you want to fill. You will also not feel pressured to bring just "something" home, since you will not have an herb plant that needs potting up waiting for you. Bottom line: Shop during the off season and find to find just the right container for the job.
