Just looking at your picture, is the wall in shade? If so, I believe that may limit which herbs will grow well. I absolutely love the pallet idea and was thinking of doing the same, until someone pointed out my wall was completely north facing and never ever got a drop of direct sunlight.

Year 2 wildflower area
Usually in a wildflower mix there's a mix of perennial and annual, not sure if there's any perennial in that mix. I'd dig up the grasses and perhaps put some seed in its place.

Good point Sheal. I'd assumed this was a slight mis-posting, since they didn't say much about it having to be one of them.Most evergreen herbs are vaguely Mediterranean, so they don't respond too well to soggy British clay. Lavender and rosemary would generally fit the bill though, as long as...

A little experiment in a wasted area of garden
This popped up the other day, hoping to see lots of these now!I had to go in to do some weeding so it's not that wild after all. The bind weed is just choking so many flowers

Forgot to mention the insects.They are probably aphids, and personally I wouldn't bother about insects on wild plants because they'll be food for other wild stuff like ladybirds. But if they were close to my veg such as broad or runner beans, I'd give them a spray of soapy water.
