Well daisydee, I have moved a rosemary and a sage from another part of the garden and I have marjoram and thyme in pots that I brought here with me. Maybe try corriander,chives - any suggestions?
As you can see my brick path is a bit wonky so I'll be working on that one fine day.

You have the bones of a Fine Herb Wheel there Ginellie. is your thyme the lemon one, where you squeeze or stand on it and smells gorgeous, like lemons? sorry i cant help with suggestions, i dont grow herbs, I only have 2 standard Bay Trees, and ony beacause they look good, not for cooking lol. Do you use herbs in your cooking?

I use lots of herbs in cooking and also lots of garlic - so maybe I should try that too. I did try corriander seeds last year but forgot where I sprinkled them. It was only when I noticed an unusually pungent smell near the sweet peas that I remembered. Tidy I am not!

Chives look nice Ginellie. How about some tarragon or oregano? The oregano might try to take over though. Basil would be nice too. Fennel always looks good with its feathery foliage.
