Herbs like basil, cilantro, or mint are nearly foolproof for beginners and grow quickly. Even a windowsill can support a small herb garden. There's incredible satisfaction in seasoning your cooking with plants you grew from seed, and fresh herbs taste dramatically better than store-bought.

“I ate my first radish today too. It tasted really lovely and very different than store bought ones. It was less "spicy", if that makes sense. Also, I've used my lettuce, basil, cilantro and rosemary in this weekend's cooking. This is SO much fun.”
