The tiny purple flowers are quite pretty and dwarf or trailing varieties make a great addition to the garden.

Perennial herbs that survive winter. They survive the extreme cold of Alberta winters and reliably emerge each Spring. These herbs are perennial and can survive throughout the winter keeping their leaves. Other perennial herbs such as tarragon chives and mint are less hardy so may die back as the temperatures drop over winter.

Its hardy in mild winters but can survive for years in cold climates if planted in a pot and brought indoors in winter. Chop up and top sauces pasta dishes and roasted meats. Lavender rosemary and sage are present all through the year and are some good examples of woody herbs that are like shrubs.

Perennial herbs are bay chives lavender lemon balm marjoram mint oregano rosemary sage tarragon thyme and winter savory. The Mediterranean herbs are tough and only need watering about every second or third week but the leafy greens will need watering every 4 to 6 days. Perennial herbs such as Sage Thyme Chives Mint and Lavender can overwinter and grow back or continue to grow in spring and this for several years.

These herbs do not require much care either. Piney-scented rosemary is a fairly sturdy plant. In areas with frost they grow as perennials going dormant in the winter and coming back with new growth in the spring.

Some cold hardy herbs mint thyme oregano sage and chives are very well adapted. They are almost indestructible. Annuals like Cilantro Chervil Dill Parsley and Basil will have a hard time to survive the outdoor winter and need to be replanted every year in spring time.

Once planted Jane gives all the herbs a thorough watering to settle them into the potting mix really well. Its creeping branches grow as a groundcover or climb structures like arches. Plant them where they get at least four to six hours of direct sunlight each day.

Other herbs not listed are either annuals or biennials meaning they have a life cycle of one or two years. Winter Savoury is Janes favourite.
