Herbs: What is going on in your herb garden this season?, 1 by bonehead

Hi all. A few years back I transformed my old veggie garden to an herb garden and it is now really starting to take off. I find most herbs to be pretty robust plants needing lots of space. I've had my troubles with lavender, rosemary, and tarragon. I'm not a huge lavendar fan so can live with that as an annual - it either dies for me over winter or ends up really scraggly the next year. Rosemary I am trying to get established - a friend has one that is the size of a shrub so I know it is possible. Tarragon, hmmm. My goal is to fill the entire garden so there is relatively little weeding to be done.
