Above
are links to general guidelines for growing various herbs. It's probably easier than you thought
and there's nothing better than harvesting and cooking with your own home grown
produce.
Many
herbs can also be grown in pots indoors, so long as they are kept in a light
position (e.g. on a windowsill), but beware of them being scorched by the sun
through the window!
Most
herbs prefer a sunny position, especially the woody types such as thyme, sage
and rosemary, although shade for part of the day is a welcome
relief to the annual types such as parsley, basil and chervil.
