How can I start a high-potency herbal tea garden in a limited space?
You don't need acres of land to cultivate a rich tea garden. A simple trio of Peppermint (for digestion), Chamomile (for nervous system support), and Lemon Verbena (for high-citral uplifting aromatics) can be grown in containers on a sunny balcony. Ensure you use high-quality organic potting soil, provide excellent drainage, and harvest regularly to encourage bushy, dense growth.
Action
