I know Rosemary does. I had a couple of stems in water in my kitchen as they can repel flies in the summer. They rooted in the water they were stood in. I planted them in an unused corner of my garden and they are massive now

Danae, I fear I shall never share my bok choi with you; the garden nasties have already shared it among themselves! I made the mistake of putting it outside!
I'm rather excited! A few days ago, when I was going through the seeds I have in my fridge (in order to see what I actually had and what I needed to get), I found an old envelope with a few coriander seeds. It said, "Sow by 2016".
I couldn't quite throw them out (I'm a real scrooge), so I used an old supermarket plastic container with lid (I don't throw those out either!), lined it with a moist kitchen towel, placed the seeds on the wet towel, closed the lid and put it in a warm spot in the kitchen.
Today, I discovered that 4 of the seed had grown little thin tails! I have now put them in a small flower pot with multipurpose compost.
I hope at least one of them survives and gives me some ...amazing coriander! I will then be certain that it pays to be a scrooge!
Those four seeds now. Better than throwing them out, I think.
Not plants that root in water, but finished supermarket herbs left outside to fend for themselves and survived. Will give them a little TLC Two coriander and two parsley

@Stevedaylilly what about watercress?😉
I followed Hexagon's advice and planted them out. Here is an update on their progress, especially for Sam!
That's what they look like today. Something has eaten one of them!
I have a dream that my.. children.. one day.. will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character
