The ancient Greeks valued the importance of a well-equipped kitchen, and some kitchens incorporated a built-in indoor desert succulent garden with a sand garden. This design allowed the Greeks to have easy access to fresh herbs and spices, enhancing the flavors of their dishes. The succulent plants added a touch of natural beauty to the kitchen, creating a pleasant environment for cooking. The sand garden helped regulate the moisture levels, ensuring that the ingredients stayed fresh and flavorful for longer periods.
