Hi all,

I bought my tomato plants on Saturday at the Green City Market and got them planted. Next weekend, I'm going to plant my herb garden. Since I'm pretty knew here, I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a terrific nursery in the city for buying herb plants? I saw that there were some herbs for sale at GCM, but the variety wasn't huge (though the sweet basil looked beautiful), so I'm wonder if there is somewhere better. Any suggestions would be most welcome.

Thanks,

E

I've always found Anton's to have a long list of interesting herbs. Prices seem reasonable, and there's a 10% off coupon on the website.

Its been my experience that the LIncoln Park farmers market has a much better selection of potted herb plants than does the GCM. I live equidistant between the two markets and frequent them both during the season.
