It depends on the variety of herb, RST. Some are hardy and some are not.
What kinds of herbs did you sow?Whooops - now what are the dogs getting up to? -

Most garden centres (& Homebase) sell pots of herbs.Comment

Why don't you go there and have a look rst. Nobody can advise you until you have some - unfortunately none of us are proficient with a crystal ball.Comment

It may vary from branch to branch, why not ring them?

What sort of herbs do you want to grow RST?Comment

Personally, I wouldn't bother. It looks quite flimsy, will take a lot of compost to fill, and it will be difficult to meet individual plant requirements.Originally posted by rst View PostComment

To be honest- I'd leave it until next spring- most herbs have flowered and are past their best.
Give yourself time to think what you want to grow and where you'll site them. Think about height and width and which flavours you actually enjoy.
If you really want a herb for outside now- then maybe get a selection of different types of mint. They'll die back over winter but should grow well in th Spring.
They'd be fine overwintering in pots until you make your final plants on your herb bed
