Hello
My partner has expressed an interest in growing herbs in a window box
(London living=no garden)so i was thinking of buying him one for
christmas. I am a completely ignorant gardener so don't even know if
it's a good time of year to plant anything & if so what herbs should I
put in it?
Any help would be greatly apreciated!

Hello Molly. Below is a wonderful site where you can get started. Once
you've read and digested all this, and made your choice of herbs,
perhaps your questions will be more precised. For a start though you
can grow *any* herbs as long as they get plenty of sunshine and you can
water them everyday.
