I'm going to have to try sage and rosemary in tea! I have tons of sage, and a good crop of rosemary.
As for annuals, I grow basil, parsley, cilantro, and dill; the dill and cilantro always bolt quickly in the hot weather, so I mostly grow them to harvest the seeds for cooking and buy the leaves.
Perennials I have: about 4 varieties of thyme, several sages (three decorative), several oreganos (again, a few mostly decorative), lemon grass, lemon verbena, lemon balm, winter and summer savory, tarragon, lavender, mints, and chives. I think that's it! Oh, I grow catnip for the cat--I've heard that it's good for tea, but that's pretty much done as well.

Must be more diligent next summer!
