October is a great time to plant an herb garden in Louisiana as cooler temperatures help them get established.

Some of the perennial herbs that do well and can be planted now are lemon balm, rosemary, burnet, sorrel, catmint, garlic chives, oregano, thyme, sage, lavender and many more.

Herbs like parsley, cilantro, dill, chicory and fennel are a few annuals that you can plant now. Most herbs require direct sun at least four to six hours a day and excellent drainage.
