What herbs do you like to grow?

I love mint, as it makes great tea, so I always have plenty of that Also basil and oregano, delicious fresh in pasta dishes. Also have some lemon balm as that is also great in herbal tea as well as in some dishes to add a delicious citrus freshness

Two days ago, I bought a small lemon verbena. I'm in love with this plant! It's my current favorite herb. Smelling it is very relaxing.

I really like to grow cress, because its healthy and sprouts in a few days. The perfect sandwich topping or salad ingredient. If you buy a big put as some soil you can have your own cress field in the window still!

I have finally gotten around to growing my basil. I am in love with it! It has been such a fun experience tending to it because it's a challenge to keep alive and going.

I currently have mint since I love using it for tea and mint water. When I get more space I'll do rosemary and basil, but as it stands my current cooking needs haven't called much use for them.

I tend to grow things that I cook with the most - rosemary, thyme, basil and cilantro are the main ones! I prefer to grow them so that I can just grab what I need easily and it's a cost saving thing too.

I have a whole windowsill of herbs including basil, thyme, cilantro, rosemary and mint. My main problem is keeping my cilantro alive! It tends to die after a few days. Does anyone have any advice? I usually buy the little in door plants at the grocery store. I have no issue keeping my rosemary, basil and mint alive, but my cilantro is very difficult. I replant it and water it every other day, same as my basil. Am I over watering it?

I love cilantro but have gone through several pants and am growing very frustrated. Any advise would greatly help!
