Separately, I want to grow some herbs now that we have a garden. Basically, I think gardens are annoying and a waste of time but I would have kinder feelings towards our garden if it grew tasty herbs that we could put in our food to make it tastier. I don't think I have enough dedication for vegetables but I think I could manage herbs.
I've been doing a bit of googling, though, and it all seems highly confusing. I just want to grow tasty things in my garden but there seems to be no obivous idiot proof guide for this - can anyone point me to one? Or give me some general advice? I'm only interested in growing easy things because I am lazy. Things that I would use: coriander, basil, thyme, rosemary, mint, parsley, chives, dill, sage. Although, let's face it, I would use anything that grew in my garden because fresh herbs are awesome. My latest food obsession quotes an excellent Persian proverb on the subject, "Even the worm in the rock dreams of fresh herbs."
Am I right in thinking that there's basically no point in planting anything at this time of year now and that I should wait till spring?
