Default Herbs!!!

Hello all,
Can the group help me out myself and the wife have just fixed up
the front green and with a mix of plants, and herbs. I was wondering do they
have to be removed before the winter. Or will the come back need year.

You'll have to tell us which plants you've got: some last for years
("perennials"), some live only for one year ("annuals"), while an
in-between kind take two years to flower and then die ("biennials").
Most ordinary cooking herbs are hardy perennials, and will stand the
winter well without any special treatment.

Depends on the plants and herbs. Some will die off completely over
winter, some will die down and come back next year, some will carry on
growing through the winter. A few bulbs and tubers need lifting over
winter and replanting next year.
