Perennial with small scented leaves. Excellent if used sparingly with poultry, meat and game, and in soups. Sow April-May outdoors. Prefers chalky fertile soil.

Herbs are a welcome addition to any garden, but they will grow with equal success in pots on sunny windowsills and tubs on warm patios. Experiment with nutritious, health-giving herbs in your kitchen, adding interesting tastes to hot/cold dishes.
