Best plants to grow for herbal tea other then mint? I have mint already but I am looking at what else I can grow and cultivate for culinary purposes. I saw chamomile yesterday but I am not a big fan of chamomile. I have several types of lavender and lemon balm growing.
Also with the different leaves, flowers etc, which is the best way to prepare them? (ie: dried leaves, fresh flowers, crushed to powder etc)
I live in England and can plant outside and I also have southern and eastern facing windowsills.
I am a coffee drinker but with summer approaching I was thinking iced teas would be nice and when it turns cool I can make hot teas with my summer crop. Thank you!

This company has a very comprehensive site and their catalogue has good listing of what is grown for which purpose. They specialize in herbs and I've been dealing with them for over 40 yrs.
