Pikevi, so far I have only grown chives, italian parsley, rosemary, dill, mint (in container), thyme, and lots of basil. Unfortunately the rabbits got to the basil first!
I am now a little more adventurous and have added the greek oregano and garlic chives. No rosemary this time around, the bush grows far too big for this small garden.

I wonder why you failed in your attempt to grow basil, it is a must with tomatoes, keeps white fly away. May be the soil of course, herbs seem to like sandy soil, and living in the sand dunes here helps I suppose.
