To learn what the doc grows in his garden look out for: #DrScottMedicinalGarden

Growing a garden, like most things in life, takes patience.

#LasVegas is a #Zone9 growing area and trial and error and mother nature have been the best teachers in figuring out what #medicinalherbs grow well in our #garden

Here are a few medicinal herbs we've had success growing:

#Echinacea is easy to grow from seed and takes about 10-20 days to germinate. Sow outdoors about 1/2 inch deep. They are easy-care, low-water plants that like full sun and produce strong pink blooms which attract bees and butterflies.

#Astragalus seeds require a 21-day cold period of stratification to promote germination followed by mild scarification with fine-grade sandpaper, the seeds take 3-10 days to germinate. They can be transplanted outdoors in early spring. When transplanting, space plants approximately 15" apart. They like full to partial sun and well drained soil.

#WhiteSage grows easily from seed and requires little maintenance once established. Start seeds indoors in early spring. Germination takes approximately 14 to 21 days. Plant outdoors in full sun and well drained soil.
