.
. WELCOME
. WELCOME BACK. SO WEATHER AND OUTDOOR SPACE
PRETTY MUCH DICTATES WHAT WE
DECIDE TO GROW INSIDE OUR HOMES
BECAUSE LET ME TELL YOU MY
ROSEMARY BUSHES DIED OUTSIDE
THIS YEAR.
BUT CHECK THIS OUT A NEW BOOK
COMPLETE CONTAINER HERB
GARDENING HAS ALL THE
INFORMATION YOU NEED AND IT
EVEN SHOWS US HOW TO PLANT
SPECIFIC CONTAINER GARDENS FOR
THE THINGS WE LOVE.
AUTHOR AND HORTICULTURALIST SUE
GETS SHOWED ME HOW TO PLANT AND
HERBAL TEA GARDEN SO KIND
OF STARTING RIGHT OFF LOOK FOR
A REAL SUNNY WINDOW STILL IN
THE HOUSE AND THEN MEASURE THE
WINDOW SILL BECAUSE IF YOU'RE
GOING TO BUY A POT THAT'S TOO
BIG YOU DON'T WANT IT FALLING
OUT OF THE WINDOW.
SO THE ONLY THING THAT YOUR POT
REALLY NEEDS TO HAVE THAT'S
IMPORTANT IS THAT IT HAS THE
HOLE IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT SO THE
WATER DRAINS OUT.
YOU DON'T DROWN YOUR POOR
LITTLE PLANTS IN MEXICO.
YOU KNOW YOU CAN PICK WHATEVER
WORKS SO MAYBE YOU HAVE JUST AN
UGLY POT, YOU KNOW, JUST KIND
OF THE POT THAT CAME FROM THE
NURSERY OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT
LIKE IT'S FINE BUT I WANT
PRETTY SO THAT YOU CAN GET A
POT.
SO THIS IS MORE DECORATIVE.
RIGHT.
BUT IT DOESN'T HAVE A HOLE AND
SO WHAT YOU COULD DO IS TAKE
THAT UGLY POT, LEAVE A POTTED,
PUT IT INSIDE OF THAT AND THEN
THAT'LL HELP TO KEEP WATER FROM
DRIPPING ALL OVER THE PLACE.
IT'S BASICALLY YOUR
CAMOUFLAGING THE UGLY POT.
SO THAT'S A REALLY GREAT TRICK
TO DO THAT WITH AN TO REPLANT
ANYTHING.
IT'S PERFECT, RIGHT?
WELL, I STILL WANT YOU TO GET
YOUR HANDS DIRTY.
YEAH.
SORRY YOU GOT TO GO THERE A
LITTLE BIT WHICH BRINGS US TO
THE DIRT RIGHT.
YOU WANT TO JUST BUY REALLY
GOOD QUALITY POTTING SOIL OK
YOU HAVE TO BE FANCY DOESN'T
HAVE TO HAVE A LOT OF CRAZY
INGREDIENTS JUST NEEDS TO BE
REALLY GOOD QUALITY ALSO
ORGANIC AND THEN WHEN YOU ARE
READY TO PLAY AND YOU WANT TO
MAKE SURE THE PADDING SELLS
NICE AND DAMP SO HOLD IT
TOGETHER, STOP THIS LITTLE
POWDERY AND THEN YOU CAN GET
READY AND START PLANTING.
WHAT DO YOU PLANT?
WHAT ARE SOME GOOD HEARTY
HOPEFULLY HERBS THAT WILL MAKE
IT ON MY WINDOWSILL?
I THINK THE ONE OF THE EASIEST
ONES THERE'S ONE THAT'S KIND
OF TEASING ITSELF RIGHT HERE
THIS IS A MINT SO SUPER
FRAGRANT AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE
GOING TO TALK ABOUT WHEN WE
WANT TO MAKE SOME TEA.
YOU CAN GROW SOME ROSEMARY.
YOU'VE GOT A NICE ROBUST WE'LL
CALL IT ROSEMARY.
I WISH YOU GUYS COULD SMELL
THIS RIGHT.
THIS IS HOW I SMELL AVISION
SMELL A VISION RIGHT OF IT.
SO ROSEMARY AND THERE IS A
BEAUTIFUL TIME AND THE REASON I
LOVE THIS ONE I'M GOING TO TRY
AND SNEAK IT A LITTLE CLOSER
AND LOOK THE COLOR OF THE
LEAVES.
THERE'S A LOT OF CREAM.
OH, THAT'S PRETTY.
SO IF YOU WERE TO PUT IT WITH
ANOTHER PLANT YOU COULD SEE HOW
LOOK REALLY NICE TOGETHER.
SO AND THIS IS SUPER FRAGRANT,
REALLY WONDERFUL.
SO SOME TIME SOME ROSEMARY,
SOME MINT THERE'S JUST ALL
OF THESE WONDERFUL ONES YOU
COULD GROW LEMON BALM.
THAT'S A WONDERFUL TEA ONE AS
WELL.
SO THOSE THE SIMPLE ONES AND
THEY'RE PRETTY TOUGH.
THEY DON'T REALLY FUSS A LOT.
YOU JUST GIVE THEM WHAT THEY
NEED WHICH IS WHAT THEY NEED IS
SOME LIGHT.
RIGHT.
SO A SUNNY WINDOW AND IF YOU
DON'T HAVE A SUNNY WINDOW I
HAVE A TRICK BECAUSE I HAVE A
WINDOW AND IT'S JUST KIND
OF OVER HERE AND IT DOESN'T
HAVE ENOUGH LIGHT FOR MY HERBS
BUT I NEED MORE SO I JUST HAVE
A FLOOR LAMP, A DECORATIVE
FLOOR LAMPS AND NO USE IN YOUR
LIVING ROOM.
I PUT A PLANT LIGHT BULB IN
THERE SO YOU CAN BUY THOSE AT
HARDWARE STORES.
IT'LL HAVE ALL THE LIGHT
SPECTRUM SO TO SPEAK IN IT I
ADD EXTRA LIGHT AND SO THEN
YOUR ERB'S CAN DO REALLY WELL
BECAUSE THEY HAVE EXTRA AND
THEN CAN YOU HARVEST RIGHT FROM
THE PLANT THERE YOU HAVE TO DRY
IT OUT FIRST.
HOW DOES THAT WORK?
SO HARVEST RIGHT FROM THE PLANT
SUPER FRESH SO SO IF I WANT TO
MAKE A CUP OF PEPPERMINT RIGHT
SO I JUST NIPPED OFF YOU COULD
SEE THERE'S THERE'S AT LEAST
THESE YOUNG LEAVES THE ONES
THAT ARE THE VERY END ARE THE
SUPER FLAVORFUL ONES AND YOU
COULD LITERALLY JUST TAKE THIS
AND THROW IN YOUR TEACUP, ADD
SOME NICE WATER TO NICE WARM
WATER NOT BOILING BOILING BUT
HOT AND SO YOU PUT THAT WATER
IN THERE AND LET IT SIT FOR
ABOUT AT LEAST FIVE MINUTES IF
NOT TEN MINUTES BECAUSE THE
LONGER YOU LET IT GO THE MORE
FLAVORFUL IT BECOMES.
THAT'S ALL YOU HAVE TO DO.
THAT'S HOW EASY THIS WAS.
MY GRANDMA IS GOING TO BE SO
EXCITED TO HEAR THIS BECAUSE
SHE LOVES HER TEA AND I LIKE
LITERALLY JUST TAKING A PIECE
OF MEDOFF I LET.
ALL RIGHT.
SO IN YOUR BOOK YOU HAVE MORE
GARDEN IDEA CONTAINER GARDEN
AND ALL GARDENING IDEAS.
RIGHT.
TELL US ABOUT YOUR BOOK.
YEAH, I STILL A BOOK JUST CAME
OUT SO EXCITED TO SHARE IT.
IT'S CALLED THE COMPLETE
CONTAINER GARDENING AND REALLY
WHAT IT IS HOW TO GROW HERBS IN
CONTAINERS JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE.
I HAVE SOME INDOOR TIPS.
A LOT OF OUTDOOR TIPS JUST
TAKES YOU FROM START TO FINISH.
I TALK ABOUT A LOT OF HERBS AND
I WANTED TO MAKE THIS EASY.
I MEAN WE'RE BUSY.
WE JUST WANT TO HAVE THESE I
THINK LUXURY PLANTS.
YOU GIVE SO MUCH TO YOU AND
FLAVOR AND FRAGRANCE AND ALL
OF THOSE THINGS.
SO HOW DO WE DO THIS EASY STICK
IT ON THE PATIO.
I EVEN HAVE IDEAS FOR PEOPLE
WITH A ROOF GARDEN OR BALCONIES
HOW WE KIND OF COMBAT THE
ELEMENTS OF THAT AND IT JUST
REALLY TAKES YOU ON THIS
COMPLETELY CONTAINER JOURNEY
AND ALSO REALLY EXPLORES THIS
MULTIFACETED PLANT CATEGORY.
RIGHT?
IT'S LIKE LAVENDER AND ROSEMARY
AND LAVENDER TEA, YUMMY THINGS
LIKE THAT.
THERE'S JUST A LOT OF THINGS
THAT YOU CAN DO WITH HERBS AND
I THINK IT'S JUST A SHORTCUT IF
I JUST SAID HERE'S PRETTY
PLANTS, PUT THEM IN A POT
INSTEAD I SAY HERE'S PRETTY
PLANTS, PUT THEM IN A POT AND
THIS IS WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO
TO USE THEM AND OK SO IN
ADDITION TO THAT HERBAL TEA
