Now that I know the upside down herb planters aren’t working on my fire escape, I wanted to figure out a different way to grow herbs in my limited space.
That’s where one of the readers of my blog, Craig Stanton, became my voice of reason. He suggested capping the upside down planters and growing the herbs out of the top.
Obvious, yes, but I totally overlooked it.
At his advice, I started a hanging herb garden made from recycled soda bottles that have been recycled again. That makes me greener than green.
I’ve planted french tarragon, greek oregano and apple mint. These should perform better than the upside versions.
