From Herb Seeds to a Full Garden Plan
Herbs are forgiving to grow, but timing still affects how quickly you get a usable harvest. Add any variety from this collection to your Seedtime calendar, and the garden planning software will calculate seeding and harvest windows based on your specific location, so your basil and cilantro are ready right when you need them for the kitchen. You can start planning for free, and if you want unlimited calendars and planning tools as your herb garden expands, compare Seedtime's plans to find the right fit.
One Order, One Shipping Rate

Paid Seedtime members also get 20% off seed packets marked "Fulfilled by Seedtime," priced the same as buying direct.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which herbs are easiest to grow from seed for a beginner?
+
Basil, cilantro, dill, and chives are generally among the most forgiving herbs to start from seed, germinating quickly and tolerating a range of conditions. Perennial herbs like sage, thyme, and oregano take a bit longer to establish from seed but require less replanting once they're going, since they'll come back year after year in the right climate.
Are all the herb seeds here organic?
+
No. High Mowing and Peaceful Valley are fully organic herb seed suppliers, while MIgardener and Southern Exposure carry a mix of organic and conventional varieties. You can filter by organic status, and each listing notes the status of that specific variety.
What's the difference between annual and perennial herbs, and does it matter which I choose?
+
Annual herbs like basil and dill complete their life cycle in one season and need to be replanted each year, while perennial herbs like sage, thyme, and oregano return on their own in subsequent seasons once established. Choosing perennials can mean less replanting over time, but annuals often grow faster and are easier to fit into rotations with other crops.
