Sage
by Phyliss Williams of K&W Greenery
A fully hardy perennial herb, growing about 24 inches tall and very full. The gray leaves have long been important in cooking, and the rounded form makes a pleasing mass. Try one of the variegated or purple leafed varieties, too!

Rosemary
by Phyliss Williams
Not winter-hardy, but worth bringing in each winter. Can be easily trained into a small topiary tree or left to become the most deliciously pine-ish scented herb. Tender perennial.

Mint

Mint
by Phyliss Williams
Robust, if not downright aggressive. This hardy perennial can be invasive, so you may want to contain it in a sunken pot. It will thrive in shady, moist locations, creeping to fill all the little bare spots between plants.

THYME
by Phyliss Williams
Low, creeping with tiny leaves and even tinier flowers, perfect for tucking between flagstones or along pathway edges. When stepped on, the unmistakable fragrance will fill the air; no harm done unless trampled regularly. Perennial.
