After a lot of research and trying to sort things out like all round interest balanced with common and uncommon herbs which can be medicinal or flavoursome, I have just ordered seeds from Nicky's for the following:-

Marjoram
Parsley (Already sown, but not surfaced yet!)
Hyssop
Mallow Marsh
Bergamot
Anise
Chives (I'll split up clumps I already have!)
Thyme

I also intend to use Calendula, Lavender, Thyme and cuttings from a small Rosemary I have inherited, plus Box (Buxus) and chives as edging to beds!

I am thinking about setting up a small section for various mints I already have, plus some others as well!
