Here on the coast we grow thyme, Italian parsley, chives, oregano, and mint. They do great, but it is generally too cool and shady in our area for basil, which loves sun and warmth. Suggest you plant a dozen different herbs, and just see what thrives. You can plant them any time of year, but they are most available in mid to late spring, so that is best time to buy them.
