A few years ago, I bought about 10 Tesco pots of Thyme and planted it
out en masse.

Initially, it did flop horribly but then grew properly and lasted about
4 years. However, the flavour was inferior after a year or so.

Chives seem to do ok, as long as you trim them right back as soon as you
purchase them and don't harvest them again for a couple of months 'til they
get established.
