Container-grown herbs may be planted out into the garden, and seeds of annuals and biennials sown. Feed and water young plants and those grown in pots. Harvest leaves, flowers and seeds throughout the season; deadhead spent flowers unless seed is required.
From mid-summer, semi-ripe, softwood and stem cuttings may be taken for propagation. Cut back herbaceous plants after flowering. Shrubby herbs should be trimmed back in late summer, to encourage bushiness and low branching. Take the flower stems down to the first leaves and nip out the tips out of the main new young shoots.
