The French variety is well suited for growth in pots for the kitchen herb garden, and can also be planted directly in the ground. Its root structure is composed of twisting, serpentine runners that spread rapidly in the garden. Due to its robust root spread, you may want to give it a dedicated spot of its own. Or, you can restrict the roots by planting in a large pot and sinking the container into the ground. The ones that shrubs and small trees come in from the nursery are ideal for this. Select a location that receives plenty of sunshine with good drainage, and prepare the planting hole. Remove the soil in an area slightly deeper than the root ball by a couple of inches, and twice as wide. Amend the soil with plenty of organic material like mature compost and a couple of tablespoons of bone meal. Set the root ball in place, fill in the hole, and cover the crown with the amended soil, then firm in place. Water gently to settle. For pots, select a size two to three inches larger than the root ball. Place a layer of drainage material on the bottom, set the root ball in place, and cover with the soil mix
