Perhaps here on the Coffs Coast we need to grow some of our herbs in semi-shaded positions to extend their harvest. This is most certainly the case for potted herbs - they can really get heat affected during hot days.
Some classic shade loving plants:
Basil - can be extended by growing in semi-shade and interestingly, it is tastier!
Mint - everyone knows that these do well under a dripping tap but also tolerate shade very well. Best not to grow in the garden as mint can be a dominate plant!
Oregano - Golden, this one is more shade tolerant than ordinary oregano.
Tarragon - French, this herb enjoys early morning sun to perform well.
Thyme - this little beauty can be tolerant of both sun and semi-shade, simply a must!
Wasabi - why not give this one a shot, interesting and fun, grate to make your own wasabi paste.
