10 Best Herbs to Grow In Water

 known as watermint.

3. Oregano
Growing this pungent herb indoors is worth it because you can use the leaves to flavor almost any vegetable.

4. Basil

Basil will love the warmth of your kitchen and will happily grow in water-filled containers as long as it is provided with good light.

5. Sage
In spring, take soft cuttings and root them in water. You’ll probably only need a sprig or two of sage, since only a small amount is needed to impart flavor. Place the plant in a bright, well-ventilated area, as this herb is prone to powdery mildew.

6. Stevia
This sweet botanical is a great addition to freshly brewed teas and beverages at home.

7. Lemon balm

The citrus scent of this mint herb is a welcome treat in any home, especially in winter. The leaves are great for making tea. Take cuttings in spring or fall. Place the container in a warm location with plenty of bright indirect light. Root formation may take up to 3-4 weeks. Change the water regularly to keep the water clean.

8. Tarragon
Cuttings are made after new shoots appear in spring. Fall cuttings are also good, but may take longer to root. Place the cuttings in a warm and well-lit location. French tarragon is best used as a culinary herb. Russian tarragon has a milder, even milder flavor, so use it as a side salad.

9. Thyme

You will need to remove the green cuttings from the new growth. Older trees that have become stiff and brown may not be able to take root easily. The best time to harvest cuttings is mid-spring to early summer, before the plants begin to bloom. Thin thyme stalks dry out quickly. Therefore, it should be put into water immediately after cutting. Spray above the water surface if necessary. Once it begins to grow, cut off the stems to encourage branching.

10. Rosemary

Semi-lignified rosemary cuttings require longer roots to form, but new shoots from spring cuttings can form more quickly. Regardless, the effort is well worth it, as rosemary is an ideal houseplant for sunny locations.
