These plants all require bright sunlight and lightly moist soil. You don't want the soil to be too dry or wet. The mint should be placed in a separate container or area of your garden because it is very aggressive and can take over the area quite quickly. If you have a cat in your home or garden, plant catnip and catmint in your peppermint and/or spearmint growing area. <b>Tags: </b><a href="http://technorati.com/tag/How+To+Layout+A+Herb+Garden" rel="tag">How To Layout A Herb Garden</a></p>Fri, 18 May 2012 18:55:51 -0500 http://herbgardens.mynewhomeimprovement.com/herbgardens/outdoor-herb-garden.phpOutdoor Herb Garden<p>If you love gardening or want to start gardening as a hobby, there is nothing better than the outdoor herb garden.
