I have marigolds nastruims& banana peppers with my big cherrys.I have one hole in bottom& have a hole on each side my hole is 1/2 inch so drains perfectly.I used a coffee filter over the hole so soil don't wash out.
basil, parsley, onions or chives are all good herbs to grow with them.purple basil would give it color& stay with shorter growing plants,but you can trim basil and keep it bushy.
I'll post later a current picture of mine.it even has a flower in bloom [Big Grin]
