Hello green fingered ones! I'm not especially knowledgable or experienced in things gardening but I like flowers and stuff and find a bit of gardening a nice way to enjoy the outdoors in summer.
And i'm a keen cook so I have decided that I would like a proper herb garden. In front of my kitchen I have a fairly unattractive hedge/bush which i'm thinking of digging out and replacing with a raised bed. Our back garden came with railway sleeper raised beds when we moved in so I intend to continue the theme.
Any advice about this process? Acquiring sleepers (cutting them to size??), which herbs come up every year? The RHS website on herb gardens tells me I can grow Basil but i've tried and failed spectacularly before. Obviously I can't plant anything yet but I can plan and prepare.
