Herb root depth

Apr 07, 2004 1 Replies

Can anyone point me to a site that lists the rooting depth of common herbs. I've heard of tables out on the Net, but haven't been able to find any.



Thanks in advance!


Umbelliferae (dill, parsley, aniseed etc.): _deep_. They all have taproots. Ground covers: shallow Lamiaceae (basil, thyme, lavender, hyssop etc.): middling.

Others with taproots:

- mullein

- elecampane

- some of the Echinaceas
