Basil varieties, and holy basil or tulsi.

Answer 5

Oregano is a nice one and useful in tomato dishes. The different coloured thymes make for an attractive appearance. Sage is useful, too.

Answer 6

There is a popular one used in Middle Eastern cuisine that I've not heard of before until recently. I can't remember what it's called unfortunately.

Answer 7

Fennel makes for an attractive planting and the bulb is edible as well as the seeds.
Borage is another herb that is both medicinal and pretty, also a great bee attractor.

Answer 8

I found some lovage in the herb section of plants this year and snagged one. I am not sure how common it is but it is new to me.
