Summary
As cold weather approaches, gardeners should tailor their winter herb care based on plant type and climate. First, finish fertilizing by late summer and keep plants well watered into fall to help them survive dormancy. Clear out debris and weeds to reduce disease risk, and for container herbs, improve drainage and lift pots off the ground. Add a 3–6-inch layer of loose mulch to insulate the roots. Trim annuals like basil and bring them indoors, cut back herbaceous perennials to near ground level, and mulch. For woody herbs like rosemary or bay, prune lightly and wrap or cover to protect from frost.
