I am trying to establish a small herb garden.  Can anyone tell me what I
should plant in an area about 1 meter square?  I would prefer perennials.

Thanks

Types of herbs are quite variable in the conditions that they like.   What is
your climate like?  What is your soil like?  Is this 1 metre plot sunny or
shady, well drained or not?  What do you want to do with the herbs?

A rosemary bush would fill up that size spot and then spill over the edges.

1 sq mtr = 1 tyhme, 1 oregano, 1 sage, one parsley and one sweet marjoram

or

1 rosemary

or

a pot of mint

They are mostly perennials too or self seed.
