Has anyone tried growing herbs in hanging pots? How do they do?

I'm thinking that the hanging pots might be my best bet to keep rabbits and whatnot out of them, but I don't know how well the herbs would do. I've tried growing various veggies in them and it turned out awful - my green thumb turned brown that year.

I tried to last year. But the rabbits ate them all. I'm gonna try to grow some again this year. Hopefully they won't get eaten by anything but me this time. LOL

I'm planning on picking up some herb seeds tonight! I can't wait to get them started!

medako -
putting in seeds tonight?????????
we are buried under snow and ice with the mercury disappearing in the thermometer it is so cold - and it is going to get colder and colder - and you're planting already!!!

oh no....not outside, that's for sure. I'm planning to plant inside and put them in a warm window....then I might move them outside into hanging baskets once it warms up a little more.

it's still so cold here too. It's actually warmed up to 50 today which is the highest it's been in weeks. The ice is still melting off, but at least we aren't expecting any more for a while.
