We opted for the cocktail garden, and couldn’t be more excited!

We added our own spirited influence and used wine cork plant markers!  So cheery!

Pull the potted herb plant out of the pot.  Break off about half of the excess dirt from the plant.

Find the perfect spot in your soil and make a small hole for the new plant to fill.  Firmly push the soil around the freshly planted herbs, and continue with the remaining herbs.
