French Tarragon has an unfair reputation as a problem - difficult to grow and quick to die. You just need to remember its more tender than most and hates overwintering in wet soil. Plant in full sun, in a herb bed or large pot with fertile, light, free-draining soil and you’ll be fine. It’ll grow vigorously when happy and should return again and again as long as it’s tucked up over winter or bought indoors (in pots). Tarragon will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

If there were a Champion’s League of Herbs – oregano would be in it every year, one of the old Italian giants…Napoli maybe? It’s a wonderful culinary herb and is really easy to grow if you treat it well. Oregano loves being in the sun, where the rays will concentrate the essential oils, scent and flavour of the leaves. It prefers light, free-draining soil like other herbs from the Med and hates soggy roots, especially in winter. Oregano will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

There’s nothing common about this gorgeous evergreen shrub, with its pungent downy leaves and stunning purple flowers. A herb garden must-have, sage grows best in full sun, which brings out the flavour of the leaves. It does very well in pots or containers on a sunny patio or balcony and will love being outside in a bed with other Mediterranean varieties. It’s hardy and drought tolerant once established and needs a bit of space to reach its full potential. Sage will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

Coriander is the go-to herb for use in curries and south Asian cuisine. The leaves have a fresh, citrussy, lemony flavour and the seeds a warming, nutty, zesty taste. It’s quite literally a ‘marmite’ herb as up to 20% of people find the flavour of coriander has an abhorrent rotten, soapy taste. This is actually due to a variation in a certain gene, the incident of which differs with ethnicity.

Apple mint (aka Woolly Mint) is a tall variety with bum fluffy leaves and a wonderful appley scent and taste. It makes a brilliant alternative to garden mint and enjoys the same conditions – rich, moist soil and dappled shade. It’s more vigorous than most mints, which is saying something, so you’ll need to keep an eye on it and give it a good seeing to if it gets out of hand. Best grown in pots and containers to curb its enthusiasm. Apple mint will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

Dill is a wonderfully aromatic plant and is worth a place in any herb garden. The leaves are prized for their sweet anise flavour which has none of the liquorice strength of fennel, and the seeds for their pickling power. Generally grown as an annual because it’s not hardy, it will be ok over winter in a greenhouse and suits growing in deep pots – to accommodate the long root. Grow in a sunny position and keep moist. Dill is pretty vigorous but will be ok in our pot on a sunny windowsill to begin with.

There are lots of thyme varieties, but this is the original and the best. The nearest thing to wild thyme, dried bunches of which you’ll see hanging in markets from Provence to Tuscany. As you can imagine, it likes a warm, bright location. South facing is best, planting in full sun brings out the essential oils in the leaves, concentrating the flavour. All thyme enjoys light, well-drained soil and hates waterlogging, especially in winter. Common Thyme will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

Roman or common chamomile is grown for its flowers, a different, creeping variety ('Treneague') is used for lawns. The flowers produced by Roman chamomile are primarily used to make a soothing and relaxing tea. Like its toga wearing namesakes, it loves lounging about in the sun, so plant somewhere warm and bright. An indoor windowsill is a good place. Keep moist especially in hot weather. Chamomile will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

If curled leaved parsley is the best for a garnish, then flat is best for cooking. It has a slightly stronger, peppery flavour and is a lot quicker and easier to clean. It’s easy to grow but does enjoy rich, moist soil in a sunny position. Great indoors on a windowsill, in a conservatory or greenhouse, just make sure it doesn’t dry out. Harvest the leaves regularly and more will follow but you’ll probably need a few plants if you’re a heavy user. Parsley will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

Chives are a kitchen garden staple and if allowed to will seed quite happily about the garden. They’re a member of the allium family, alongside onions, garlic and leeks and have a mild onion flavour too – which is perfect for sauces, dressings, marinades and garnish. Easy to grow, choose a pot or at the front of a border in sunny or partially shaded spot. When harvesting, cut individual leaves down to just above the base – let some flowers grow for the bees and your salads. Chives will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

Rosemary is a totally under-rated shrub. The aromatic, evergreen leaves can be enjoyed all year round, bees and pollinators are drawn to the small, light blue flowers, it’s got loads of culinary uses and is full of health benefits. Miss Jessop’s Upright has a taller, less spreading habit than other varieties. She’ll enjoy most conditions in a sunny sheltered spot – pot, container, in the ground, she’s not fussy but likes fertile, well-drained soil. Miss J will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until she needs potting on.

Lemon Balm has been used for thousands of years to ease digestive problems and as a feel-good mood lifter. It’s an undemanding, easy to grow herb thriving virtually anywhere in the garden, in sun or partial shade. Bees love the pretty flowers, but it’s the leaves which pack a lemony, minty punch and have a delightful citrussy aroma. In cooking, it’s an interesting lemon alternative – especially in fruit cocktails, desserts, cakes and marinades. Lemon balm will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

Fennel is a brilliant herb and would grace any garden on looks alone. But it has style and substance; tall delicate stems and wispy leaves are topped with vivid yellow umbels of flowers in late summer and its subtle flavour is prized in all manner of culinary dishes. It’s very easy to grow and vigorous too, enjoying fertile, moist, free draining soil. On a patio or balcony, grow in a deep pot to give the tap root plenty of space. Fennel is very vigorous but will be ok in our pot on a sunny windowsill to begin with.

It’s not a question of whether to grow lavender in your herb garden, it’s which ones? Hidcote is an English lavender (rather than French) and is the most widely grown variety in the UK, with good reason. It’s super tough – hardy, drought resistant and positively enjoys rubbish soil, it can also take a severe crew-cut if necessary. Hidcote is an early flowering lavender and is a magnet for bees and butterflies. This variety is known for producing high quality essential oil. Lavender Hidcote will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

For some reason, Hyssop is a lesser known and grown herb. It was big in antiquity – used as an important culinary and medicinal plant and valued for its spiritual cleansing and protection against evil. A member of the mint family, it has a wonderful, minty floral taste with slightly bitter lavender overtones. Hyssop is a slow growing but super-hardy, semi-evergreen shrub which bees can’t get enough of. It’s comfortable in a range of soils and is an impressive plant when grown in a large pot on a warm, bright patio. Hyssop will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

Once you discover winter savory in the kitchen, you’ll be chucking it in everything! It’s highly aromatic and similar to rosemary and hyssop in appearance. It has a peppery, thyme like flavour and suits cooking in stews, casseroles and sauces. Winter savory is a hardy, evergreen perennial and once established is pretty bullet proof. Suited to pots on a sunny patio or windowsill, it will delight with pretty, nectar rich flowers in summer. Winter savory will be happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

Garden Mint aka Spearmint (it’s rapper name) is a friendly, sweetly scented perennial which is virtually unkillable. In fact, it can be a bit too friendly and in the right conditions can get out of hand, so is best grown in a pot. It’s fast growing, so you can regularly pick refreshing leaves for desserts, sauces, cocktails and baking. The soothing and decongestant qualities of mint are well known, it’s also extensively used in skin care products. Your mint will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

Garlic chives are an allium like chives, but a different species altogether; allium tuberosum. They originated in China and spread throughout Asia before the rest of the world. Larger and more vigorous than chives, with flatter, broader leaves and a distinct garlicky taste. Garlic chives are easy to grow and actually considered invasive pests in some countries. They enjoy the same conditions as regular chives, including being particularly suited to pots.

This small leaved, compact variety of mint smells delightfully of strawberries and has a minty/berry taste too. Absolutely perfect for a summer fruit cup or cocktail, the leaves should be lightly crushed and muddled into your favourite drink. Really easy to grow and suited to a pot (to stop it spreading), grow in moist, fertile, free-draining soil in a sunny but lightly shaded position. The lilac purple flowers are loved by bees and butterflies. Strawberry mint will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

African basil will excel in your garden as well as in the kitchen. To be honest, it’s a bit of a show-off – the leaves start off a delightful purple colour, which turn green as they mature and feature striking purple veins. It then throws up gorgeous spikes of deep pink flowers which are a magnet for bees and pollinators (it’s also known as Bee Basil). Because it doesn’t set seed, the flowers last for ages and are great value in pots, beds or borders. It’s a vigorous basil and can grow to 75cm tall, so needs a largish pot if growing inside.

Chicory with its latin name of Cichorium intybus might sound like a spell from Harry Potter (for making a weird coffee-like drink maybe) but it’s a herb with multiple uses and a rich history. People tend to think of Chicory as a war time coffee substitute or for using its peppery leaves to liven up a salad, but it’s actually a wonderful garden plant with beautiful blue flowers and a vigorous climbing habit. Chicory is a sprawling perennial which can reach 1.5m tall, with some support. It’s hardy down to -10 degrees so is perfectly happy in most conditions. You can eat the leaves, enjoy the flowers (along with bees and butterflies) and at the end of the season, use the root for loads of things.

Stevia is also known as candyleaf, sweetcheeks, sugarleaf and Sweet Herb of Paraguay – you can guess why. It’s hundreds of times sweeter than sugar and originates from South America, where it’s a valuable medicinal herb too. As a native of the tropics it loves similar conditions – a warm, sunny spot in dappled shade with its roots in damp, fertile, well-draining soil. Stevia is a frost tender perennial so will need to be bought indoors if you want it to survive overwinter. Stevia is pretty vigorous but will be ok in our pot on a sunny windowsill to begin with.

If you like bees, you’ll love these! Bergamot is renowned for its attraction to our bumbling and honey making friends, Bee balm being a common name amongst others. It’s worth its place for the flowers alone, which bloom into crimson, spidery fireworks. However monarda didyma was used medicinally by the native American tribe giving its name to ‘Oswego tea’, drunk for its antiseptic, digestive and calming properties.

If you’re going to grow an ornamental grass why not choose one that smells lovely and has all sorts of culinary and medicinal uses? Lemon Grass originated in Southeast Asia but became popular across the ancient world as a treatment for infections, diseases and digestive complaints, so much so that it was also known as Fever Grass. Its strong citrus fragrance made it popular in perfumery and for dispelling bad odours. Of course, Lemon Grass’s main use is in cooking – particularly in Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Sri Lankan, Malaysian and Caribbean cuisines. Although Lemon Grass is a perennial, it’s frost tender and unlikely to survive the winter outside. However, it’s a great plant for pots and can be bought inside to overwinter in a heated greenhouse or conservatory.

Amongst the mainly green leaved herb community, purple sage stands out as a beautiful, dusky contrast. It has all the culinary benefits of common sage but is said to have a slightly more peppery taste. The delightful bronze purple leaves and stems will gradually fade to a grey-green hue, so make the most of them in a large patio pot or sunny spot in your herb garden. It’s hardy and drought tolerant once established and needs a bit of space to reach its full potential. Purple sage will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

If you’re a big thyme lover, you’ll want to add Thyme Foxley (Thymus pulegioides ‘Foxley’) to your collection. It’s a low growing variety with delightfully colourful, variated leaves ranging from creamy yellow to soft peach. A broad leaved, spreading thyme, Foxley is a great choice for pots, hanging baskets and rockeries. It’ll spread gently and flower with small spikes of vivid purple flowers which are adored by bees and butterflies. Like all thyme, it has a lovely fragrance and is of course, wonderful in the kitchen flavouring all manner of sweet and savoury dishes, drinks, teas and cocktails. The beauty of this cheerful little chap is that in the summer the leaves are flecked with creamy hues and in the winter, they change to more peachy, coopery shades. So, style as well as substance! Thyme Foxley, like the rest of the family, is very hardy and used to coping with our unpredictable winters. It doesn’t like being waterlogged and is pretty drought resistant once established.

Vietnamese coriander is an aromatic herb with a completely different flavour to its sometimes, soapy cousin. It’s a staple in South Asian and Northeast Indian cuisine, the leaves lending a vibrant, zesty hand to salads, soups, stir-fries and stews when added late on. The leaves look similar to lemon verbena and it enjoys similar conditions, it also enjoys a long, cool mojito with its mate Lemon V. Quite a vigorous grower once it gets going, so using the leaves regularly keeps it tidy and in check. Persicaria odorata is a tender perennial which is easy to grow if kept somewhere frost free, warm and sunny. It likes moist, fertile soil but not wet and is a great variety for pots. A cat and dog safe plant and one for a pet friendly flower garden.

If you’re a basil lover, you’ll want to grow this. Most herbs are generally green leaved, so it’s always pretty to have something different. Like all basil, it’ll demand sun and warm conditions in rich, moist soil. Equally at home on an indoor windowsill or in a conservatory, there really is no excuse not to grow this alongside other basils.

Create wonderfully scented hanging basket with this vigorous, trailing mint. Indian Mint (Satureja douglasii) isn't a true mint but it does a damn good impression! Brilliant for teas and with a load of health benefits, it has a strong, unique minty scent and is really easy to grow. A perennial, it's not fully hardy but will over winter in mild areas or in a sheltered position. Trailing or spreading up to 1m, with small serrated leaves and pretty, dainty white flowers.

Stevia is also known as candyleaf, sweetcheeks, sugarleaf and Sweet Herb of Paraguay – you can guess why. It’s hundreds of times sweeter than sugar and originates from South America, where it’s a valuable medicinal herb too. As a native of the tropics it loves similar conditions – a warm, sunny spot in dappled shade with its roots in damp, fertile, well-draining soil. Stevia is a frost tender perennial so will need to be bought indoors if you want it to survive overwinter. Stevia is pretty vigorous but will be ok in our pot on a sunny windowsill to begin with.

Sun is the most important thing in a basil’s life, shortly followed by rich, moist compost. As long as you’ve somewhere bright and warm to grow this gorgeous herb, then you’ll be rewarded with the most Mediterranean of Mediterranean smells and flavours. Harvesting the leaves regularly will give you more but it’s worth growing several plants to spread the load.

If you’re a big thyme lover, you’ll want to add Thyme Foxley (Thymus pulegioides ‘Foxley’) to your collection. It’s a low growing variety with delightfully colourful, variated leaves ranging from creamy yellow to soft peach. A broad leaved, spreading thyme, Foxley is a great choice for pots, hanging baskets and rockeries. It’ll spread gently and flower with small spikes of vivid purple flowers which are adored by bees and butterflies. Like all thyme, it has a lovely fragrance and is of course, wonderful in the kitchen flavouring all manner of sweet and savoury dishes, drinks, teas and cocktails. The beauty of this cheerful little chap is that in the summer the leaves are flecked with creamy hues and in the winter, they change to more peachy, coopery shades. So, style as well as substance! Thyme Foxley, like the rest of the family, is very hardy and used to coping with our unpredictable winters. It doesn’t like being waterlogged and is pretty drought resistant once established.

The Curry Plant, botanically known as Helichrysum italicum, is a small, silvery evergreen shrub famous for its warm, curry-like aroma. Also called Immortelle, Everlasting, or Italian Strawflower, it smells unmistakably like curry powder. However, not to be confused with curry leaves, a staple of Indian cuisine which are from a Curry Tree (Bergera koenigii). This Mediterranean native is still valued for its culinary flair – adding a pleasingly mild curry flavour and aroma to dishes. Curry plants are a worth their place in your herb garden for their looks alone – unusual silvery foliage is studded with small, golden yellow flowers in summer. A beautiful and aromatic woody perennial which will delight the senses (and bees and butterflies!).

This small leaved, compact variety of mint smells delightfully of strawberries and has a minty/berry taste too. Absolutely perfect for a summer fruit cup or cocktail, the leaves should be lightly crushed and muddled into your favourite drink. Really easy to grow and suited to a pot (to stop it spreading), grow in moist, fertile, free-draining soil in a sunny but lightly shaded position. The lilac purple flowers are loved by bees and butterflies. Strawberry mint will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

This gorgeous little herb is known as the wild pansy, but is actually a viola. It has a traditional use in love potions and to cure ailments of the heart, Cupid is said to have struck the plant with an arrow which bled purple with ‘loves wound’. You’ll love it in the herb garden because it prefers places others don’t like – even cool, shady areas. The dainty flowers add the finishing touch to a summer salad or long, cool beverage. Nothing says ‘I Love You’ like a heartsease flower frozen into an ice cube. Heartsease will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs potting on.

You can’t have enough thyme in our opinion, especially if you love to use it in cooking or want to provide valuable nectar for bees and butterflies. Thyme Archers Gold (Thymus pulegioides ‘Archers Gold’) is a really special variety that’s a bit different from other cultivars. It has the most beautiful golden foliage which positively glows when the sun shines on it. Archers Gold is a low growing broad leaf thyme which has a milder taste than common thyme with a slight minty, lemon tang and gentle peppery finish. A brilliant culinary variety, it’s ideally suited to desserts, cakes and sweet dishes which don’t require a robust thyme flavour. Lovely in a cocktail or as a garnish, the golden yellow leaves offer something a bit different. In the garden, it’s a mound forming, spreading, evergreen (or evergold!) perennial which is happy at the front of borders, alongside path edges, in rockeries or pots. The vibrant foliage offers something different and gives year-round interest.

Chicory with its latin name of Cichorium intybus might sound like a spell from Harry Potter (for making a weird coffee-like drink maybe) but it’s a herb with multiple uses and a rich history. People tend to think of Chicory as a war time coffee substitute or for using its peppery leaves to liven up a salad, but it’s actually a wonderful garden plant with beautiful blue flowers and a vigorous climbing habit. Chicory is a sprawling perennial which can reach 1.5m tall, with some support. It’s hardy down to -10 degrees so is perfectly happy in most conditions. You can eat the leaves, enjoy the flowers (along with bees and butterflies) and at the end of the season, use the root for loads of things.

Foxglove (Digitalis purpurea) is a native wildflower herb with a rich and ground breaking medicinal history. It’s a cottage garden staple with hundreds of varieties in different colours - all bred from this original woodland dwelling plant. All parts of the plant are highly toxic to humans and animals so beware if you’ve nibbly cats and dogs or inquisitive young children. Foxgloves are one of Britain’s most recognisable wildflowers, instantly spotted by its tall spires of dangling, thimble-shaped blooms. Also known as fairy gloves, witches’ bells, dead man’s bells, or folk’s glove, they are especially adored by bumble bees. In the 18th century, English physician William Withering revolutionised cardiac medicine by identifying compounds in foxgloves which are used to this day to treat heart conditions.

If you’re going to grow an ornamental grass why not choose one that smells lovely and has all sorts of culinary and medicinal uses? Lemon Grass originated in Southeast Asia but became popular across the ancient world as a treatment for infections, diseases and digestive complaints, so much so that it was also known as Fever Grass. Its strong citrus fragrance made it popular in perfumery and for dispelling bad odours. Of course, Lemon Grass’s main use is in cooking – particularly in Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Sri Lankan, Malaysian and Caribbean cuisines. Although Lemon Grass is a perennial, it’s frost tender and unlikely to survive the winter outside. However, it’s a great plant for pots and can be bought inside to overwinter in a heated greenhouse or conservatory.

Of all the herbs which will brazenly self-seed all over your garden, and there are a lot, pot marigold is the most forgivable. It loves to find its own place to thrive, which might not be where you thought or wanted! Such a cheery, happy herb, it metaphorically blesses those who touch it, traditionally treating rashes, minor burns, cuts and skin conditions. Supposedly called ‘Pot’ marigold not because it looks fantastic in pots, although it does, but because its leaves were tossed into the cooking pot. Pot Marigold will be really happy growing in our pot on a sunny windowsill until it needs ‘potting’ on.

If you want to bring all the bees to the yard then growing Viper’s Bugloss is a must. It’s a striking native wildflower herb with electric-blue flowers and bristly stems, also known as blueweed or blue devil and is famous for its bee appeal. Like most native wildflowers, Viper’s Bugloss is incredibly easy to grow - is suitable for most soil types and enjoys full sun. It just likes to be left alone to get on with its main purpose which seems to be to attract as many bees and pollinators as possible! Once thought to cure snake bites due to the speckled stems and seeds resembling a viper’s skin or head, it’s not a culinary plant and is now rarely used in medicinal remedies.

Herb Gifts for Gardeners this Spring

Where have all the butterflies gone? The sight of buddleia bushes pulsating with masses of vibrant species seems like a childhood memory. Unfortunately, it's not nostalgic rose-tintedness, there's been an 80% reduction in UK butterflies since the 1970's. Hopefully times are changing, with fewer pesticides used and rewilding being encouraged. These herbs will do their bit.

Popularised by the famously multi-estranged folk duo Simon & Garfunkel, Scarborough Fair is a traditional northern English ballad about the impossible tasks a girl will to do to claim her true love. However, the inspiration from this collection came from the fabulous ‘Scarborough’ sausages of butchers Burton & Son in Saffron Walden. Original lyrics used ‘savory’ instead of ‘parsley’ – which is handy.

This mob of herbal heavy lifters will have your back all year round. They're all evergreen, shrubby or woody types and once mature will be as tough as they come, giving essential culinary herbs through the autumn and winter. Slower growing than most, they'll happily sit on a sunny windowsill for a while (especially over winter) but will only reach their impressive potential outside in pots, a herb garden or border.

Essential oils can also be extracted and used in aromatherapy, atomisers, tinctures and balms.

what’s included
files/BBQP2ROS2SS2156400649.png Rosemary Barbeque
This variety has been specifically bred for its enhanced culinary benefits. A squat bushy habit produces thick, strongly flavoured stems and leaves which are a delight smoking on the BBQ. The thick stems can be used as kebab skewers.
files/BBQP6CHV2SS687823297.png Garlic Chives
Larger than chives, with flatter, broader leaves and distinct garlicky taste, excellent in a marinade or straight on the BBQ. Said to have aphrodisiac and libido enhancing powers to get your party in full swing!
files/SAG2_SS1829871734.png Purple Sage
Sage has a woody, earthy flavour of pine and citrus that cuts through fatty meats and game. Lay the thick stems and leaves across your BBQ coals to infuse your food with an aromatic smoke.
files/BBQP4THY1SS1725387943.png Common Thyme
Common – pah! This variety has one of the strongest most intense flavours outside of wild thyme. The woody stems make the leaves easy to strip, toss the discarded stalks onto your hot BBQ coals.
files/PIZZA_ORE1_SS2247126131.png Oregano
You can’t beat sprinkling your own freshly dried oregano onto pizza, meats, BBQ veg and tomato salads. Use dried in a Herbes de Provence or Za'atar mix, for an aromatic, earthy, peppery flavoured rub.
files/HYS_BBQ_SS1124299361.png Hyssop
Hyssop was widely used in olden times, it has a distinctive flavour, somewhere between rosemary, lavender and mint. It’s great with lamb and can be interchanged with rosemary or combined.
