for herb and vegetable plants you can go to hicks or home depot, cheap sams is more for bushes and trees to save $$ on. So far I think home depot has the best prices for vegies and herb plants. make sure you plant them where they get at least 6 hours of full sun. and if you do pots be careful they dont dry out and depending on the vegetable stay away from pots because of the weight of the fruit on the plant. good luck!

DO NOT PLANT MINT INTO YOUR GARDEN. I REPEAT, DO NOT PUT MINT INTO YOUR GARDEN.

It spreads like weeds. Mint is a great herb, but must be kept in a container/planter. We have more mint in our yard then grass. At least my DH comes in smelling nice after mowing the "lawn".

It is SO true.
Although it smells wonderful, it takes over everything.
I planted Spearmint in my Herb garden several years ago, and it was unbelievable how it took over the garden.
Also, there are certain herbs you should and shouldn't plant near each other, just an extra tidbit of info.Chat Icon
