Any suggestions for what i should put in my herb garden?

i am planning an herb garden and im looking for suggestions.

Any suggestions for what i should put in my herb garden?
I keep basil, chive, oregano and thyme, always. chives and oregano have been perennial for me.. have had the same plants for 8 years and have given countless plants to my friends and family. Sometimes the thyme will overwinter and sometimes not. Basil is always an annual. I grow rosemary sometimes (just for the plant) and always have lavender.. again for the plant.



Just remember that herbs love sun.



Good luck!

Reply:Plant what you use the most. For me it is parsley, oregano, rosemary, chives and cilantro.
Reply:Can't live without oregano and thyme! Tomato sauces aren't the same without them so, you want oregano, thyme, rosemary (poultry, etc), chives, mint for teas and tummy upsets... Those are perennials that you can trim off to the ground if you live above zone 6 or so, and they'll come back in the spring.



Save a corner in your plot for garlic. You can eat the greens, the flowers and of course, the bulbs. Those you plant in the fall.



And one plant that is not an herb but is a must in each house is Aloe vera. You need it for skin infections, scratches, etc.
Reply:I always plant loads of basil, oregano and mint. Rosemary is a relatively easy plant to grow. I also have cilantro and chives.And I have always wanted to grow my own garlic.

Think about what you use cooking, and grow a lot of that. You will save money buying it from the grocery store all the time!!
Reply:If this is your first herb garden, they usually recommend mint and basil, which are rather easy to maintain. They have aroma and they cover a good portion of the soil. But you can go ahead and try thyme, oregano, rosemary, parsley and a wide variety of other herbs.
