🌿 What Is a Spiral Herb Garden?

A spiral herb garden is a vertically ascending garden built in the shape of a spiral. This simple yet ingenious design:

🌀 Maximizes space in small areas
🌞 Offers different microclimates (sun to shade, dry to moist)
💧 Helps in water conservation
🌿 Allows easy access to all herbs

✨Visual Frame:

         Top Tier: Dry herbs (Rosemary, Thyme)
         Mid Tier: Basil, Coriander
         Bottom: Moisture-loving herbs (Mint, Parsley)

It mimics natural ecosystems while giving you the joy of growing multiple herbs in a small area. Ideal for urban Indian homes, terraces, balconies, and kitchen gardens.
