Is it too late to plant herbs and perennials? Or perhaps a different way to
say this, is there a better time this year to plant herbs and perennials?
Specifically I'm thinking of Thyme and Echinacea. That plot of land that I
discussed in this group a while back is ready, minus some more soil, and I'd
like to get something in the ground so that in the spring its can do its own
thing.

Perennials do very well planted through late fall, as do perennial
herbs.... a good time to pick up bargains from nurserys, as they need
to be planted before the ground freezes.
