Planting an Herbal Tea Garden | Growing My Own Herbal Teas

[@GD_Psalms119]

lemongrass tea is really good too.

[@thecottagepeach]

I need to find some to propagate from the grocery store!

[@analoggurl]

I've become the same about coffee too. I'm really looking forward to doing my tea garden this year. Thanks for the info!

[@thecottagepeach]

I’m happy to hear it will inspire you!

[@alliward6040]

Lemon balm, peppermint and yarrow are a must have in a tea garden! I love them!!

[@thecottagepeach]

They're great choices, especially for a tea garden!

[@dianeladico1769]

Try Roselle. It may be a bit late this year but it's gorgeous and makes wonderful tea.

[@thecottagepeach]

Hibiscus is going to have to sub in for roselle this year for me!

[@Insidekimsworld]

I totally get the weekly “coffee-milk” thing. My garden has a lot of “tea” additions this year.

[@thecottagepeach]

I’m glad I’m not alone 😅

[@Yourrrr]

Just got recommended this and loveeee it I’m gonna give it a try! Then I’m gonna binge watch all your other videos thank you 💕

[@thecottagepeach]

Aw yes amazing!! 💚💚

[@jackiek4159]

I am so inspired to start a tea garden after watching this! Thank you beautiful lady! 💚✨🌸

[@thecottagepeach]

I'm so glad!

[@epicgardening]

Those beds look great! :)

[@thecottagepeach]

The best 🙌

[@kenyettasjourney9533]

I love pineapple sage it’s sooo pretty and it does get huge

[@thecottagepeach]

I can’t wait to see it take off!

[@samoi1616]

Oh! This is the first time that i learned that hibiscus 🌺 is edible! love this vid ❤

[@thecottagepeach]

Hibiscus tea is so yummy!

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

I love lemon verbena for tea. It’s so delicious!! I do a mix of mint, lemon verbena and lemon thyme. Stevia is great for adding sweetness. I usually only add a leaf or two max. Oregano is also good for coughs and sore throats. Herbal tea gardens are the best! You can try overwintering the lemon verbena too in your green house. I buy it every year and think it’s a bit expensive for the size of plant you get.

[@thecottagepeach]

Will definitely try to overwinter it! They do get pricey

[@NanaPelletier]

I'm starting an herbal and medicinal tea garden this year. I think you should add holy basil, purple basil, spicy Saber basil. They'll make great teas.

[@thecottagepeach]

Just grabbed holy basil!!

[@evilgoat420]

Meanwhile I'm over here trying to figure out what to do with the Hop plant I bought from a brewery two weeks ago. Hang in there little guy, I'll get you outta of the kitchen and into the ground soon... Great content, I can't wait to see how your tea garden grows.

[@thecottagepeach]

Ohhh hops are so pretty but HUGE. happy growing!

[@barbaralong8665]

In my area, rosemary can. Be a huge shrub- constantly trimmed and as tall as me and about 5 feet wide.

[@thecottagepeach]

Yes!! It doesn’t do well as a perennial here due to the cold winters we get, so I’ve never had it get that large

[@SHIRLEYLOPEZ-pm7gs]

I have the same issues with drinking coffee.

[@thecottagepeach]

I’ve found it’s a little better if I wait two in hours after waking up!

[@grimnirnacht]

Do you like mint tea? I think peppermint tea is nicer than regular mint. Ginger too

[@thecottagepeach]

I do, but it’s not usually my first choice! I usually do mint plus something else

[@stephanierobinson8480]

Love this! Have you thought about adding some mint?

[@thecottagepeach]

Thanks! I have mint growing elsewhere in pots but don’t like to plant it in beds since it spreads so easily 💚

[@TaraSwiger1]

I did a tea area too (with hibiscus I grew from seed)! I love the white chairs! Where are they from? (Or what are they called so I can google around?)

[@thecottagepeach]

Amazing!! The chairs are from ikea 💚 I think the name is Hogsten

[@samanthasandoval6333]

You should give chicory a try if you miss coffee

[@Kelly-n2z7q]

I'm not sure if ornamental hibiscus 🌺 is for tea. I thought the red-leafed variety was the edible type.

[@thecottagepeach]

It’s true roselle is the one usually used for tea but almost all hibiscus is edible 💚

[@punjabseth260]

👍👌
