Every year sage and oregano grow hardy here and the dill usually reseeds itself. Lemon and lime balm have filled in so much they are almost invasive, and I think they crowded out the dill so I purchased some more. Each year I buy more basil and rosemary.

Additionally I always add nasturtium, both the mixed jewel and empress of india. I carefully plant them in a large hole without disturbing the roots, which they don't like. They always perform nicely, growing and blooming. This year I decided to put them into a window box, and to my surprise, they are extremely happy. The plants were the same size, purchased at the same time and planted together. As you can see, the jewel mix has just taken off. I never knew the leaves would grow that large. It will be interesting to see how they bloom
