You've got lots of options, most herbs are going to grow well during Spring and Summer. You could plant rosemary, chives, basil, mint, oregano, thyme, lots of choice! One I'd avoid is coriander, it doesn't tolerate heat well.

If you've got balcony space you could also branch out into some veggies if you have bigger pots. Leafy greens like lettuce and silverbeet are very forgiving, or you could even try tomatoes, just look for a "bush" variety rather than a vine 🍅
