That settles it then - a bay tree in the gravel, and thyme in the hedge! Presume they are tough enough to stand the occasional sprinkle from the dogs?

Are you going to eat the 'erbs?

After washing! - the thyme would be safe, it was the bay I was worried about - it was lemon balm before, so it didn't matter. I'll have to buy a tall one and then eat the leaves above a foot - they're not very big dogs!

a bay tree (difficult?)

I have a couple of Bays planted in really poor spots, after 2-3 years they are still only about a foot high, but they do seem to be persevering

I have a nice little bay tree. I keep it in a terracotta pot so that I can move it inside in the winter. It went out a while back and is doing just fine.
