Hi I really want to start an herb garden this year. I built a small flowerbed and amended the soil with some Black Kow topsoil. The soil has a lot of clay but its almost like loam, there are even pockets of sandy loam in it. The flowerbed gets shade during the morning, and then from 12 to the rest of the afternoon, it gets full sun (its on the west side of my house) I was wondering which herbs could I plant that would tolerate heat and drought. I know some herbs like rosemary and thyme are good for drought but are there anymore? I may start some herbs from seed. Should I wait until Spring or can they be wintersown? Thanks
