Bay Leaf

April 22, 2021 @ 4:17 pm

Bay Leaf is used to flavor lots of things such as spaghetti sauce, soups, and stews.  It is typically placed in a pot to infuse the sauce and then removed prior to eating.  Leaves may be used fresh or dried.

It is not hardy in Colorado, so best to grow this in a pot that can live outside in the summer. Then, plan to overwinter it indoors as a houseplant in a very bright location.  Requires only moderate water and will put on growth in the winter months.
