Grow in a sunny position with free-draining soil or compost. These Mediterranean herbs perform best where drainage is excellent and should not be left in waterlogged conditions, particularly during winter.
Water regularly while establishing, then only during extended dry spells. Trim lightly after flowering or harvest as appropriate for the individual herb to maintain a compact, healthy plant.
These classic herbs are as attractive as they are practical, offering fragrant foliage, seasonal flowers and versatility in the garden. They look equally at home in raised beds, gravel gardens, patio pots and kitchen gardens.
When in flower, these herbs provide nectar for bees and other pollinating insects, making them a valuable addition to wildlife-friendly planting.
