Talkback: Keeping herbs for winter

This year I have potted up herbs that die down in winter (mint, chives, marjoram) and put them on my kitchen windowsill. Very handy for snipping!

    What's with the Dill this year ? Mine's grown to over 1m 8o cms and still going. My only references say that a height of 1m 20 is exceptional. Is Dill of this height this to be expected in the future ?

    Thanks for the tips. I entered gardening in a big way this year (from having a flagged yard with a tub of herbs, to moving house and taking on a full bedded, lawned garden). I've enjoyed myself that much I've even taken on an allotment (I like to aim big!)but I've never investigated a way of preserving herbs. Unfortunately, to say these were the only things I used to grow, with all the gardening embracing I've been doing, they're the one thing that have been ignored this year. I still have some lovely basil and rosemary that I want to get the full use out of and the links have been useful. Keep up the good work
