Perennial Salvia, rosemary (difficult!), and some of the rock garden herbs for mame/accents.

Hi Hoboman - I thought that the following picture might make you try Rosemary as bonsai.
This tree is approx. 20 yrs. old and is very easy to maintain - quick clip with shears maybe twice a year.
Potted in Cat litter, fed on Tomato fert several times a year.
