Just treading water here!

Our outdoor Thyme & Oregano die back & regrow in the Spring. Our Sage survives, as does our Parsley under cloches.

parsley is biennial so will/should keep until next year when it will set seed

thyme, sage and oregano will often keep their leaves and can be harvested throughout - reasonably tough and hardy

feverfew often dies back but will set seed (be careful how you use this as it can be an irritant)

if you do lose any of them they are easy to start again with fresh seed
