Sorry to hear your daughter is growing up on you... 
but I also hear that we daughters tend to get better
with age.  ;-)

As far as the herbs go, remember that most of the culinary
herbs are native to areas like the Mediterranean coast...
poor, well-drained soils, lots of sun, not a lot of rain.

My mother in law in Houston is finally able to grow herbs
after I pointed that out to her.  Most of her collection is
in strawberry jars set up on bricks.
