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.

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

Catmint
Catmint is generally milder and less smelly than catnip but can still have a feelgood effect on felines. It has a minty aroma and produces spikes of beautiful deep violet flowers which will attract bees and cats.
Catnip
A pot of catnip growing on a windowsill could send your kitty into euphoric raptures. Not all cats respond to the smell, but those that do have a feelgood reaction – becoming stimulated, then wacked out!
Lemon Balm
The uplifting, feel good effects of lemon balm can be of benefit to cats and dogs. The leaves can ease anxiety and may have a calming effect on your pet’s digestive system, easing pain and diarrhoea
Marigold (Pot)
Calendula officinalis could have benefits for your cats and dogs. Just like for humans, it’s used as a skin and wound healer for scrapes, scratches, bites and stings and might help sooth joint aches and pains
Parsley - Flat Leaved
Parsley is packed full of vitamins and minerals (including potassium, beta-carotene) which can be beneficial to your cat. A sprinkling here and there on food may help freshen the breath and ease aches and pains.
Rosemary - Miss Jessop's Upright
Rosemary is part of the same family as catmint and catnip but its scent can repel felines, so is useful as an anti-cat herb, to keep them away. It does have some great medicinal, antioxidant benefits for your cat.
