To pot or Not to pot

[Twoflower]

hi all
Last year i grew the following herbs in a raised bed -
Mint
Choc mint
Bananna mint
Parsely
Thyme

They ended up like a jungle and all bunched up etc
So i have removed all i could and kept ones in small pots - my question is do i keep them in pots but in the bed so the roots are controlled or do i just plant them again like i did and leave them to go a bit wild ?
Also what herbs are good to grow ? as i would like some variation
Thanks

All my mints go in a pot in the ground - it contains them nicely. Herbs - depends on what you want them for really...there are o many of them!

Where's your marjoram/oregano? Chives? Lemon balm?
