    My favourites are corriander and basil.
    I love basil with my tomatoes and corriander in everything - especially in salsa or curry!

    I've just got some purple sage which I hope will do well.
    My rosemary and thyme are doing very well, but I don't use them as much.

    I love an infusion made by pouring boiling water over 2 or 3 fresh lemon verbena leaves ! The leaves dry just left on the side in the kitchen in summer and can be used similarly reconstituting to fresh green leaves. My plant needs protection over winter and never grows big enough for my desire for infusions! I shall have to try taking cuttings!
