What herbs can I grow in a window that receives only 2 hours of light?

General    NY

I have officially ran out of space to grow any more plants this year on my balcony. I thought I could grow a few herbs in my kitchen window to use as needed but it is more north facing than south and only really gets about 2 hours of light a day. Is there anything I can grow that will survive?

There are a few that will grow in low light conditions....mints will grow quite well in any condition, including indoors with low light. Broadleafed thyme is also a successful low light herb, as well as rosemary, and Vietnamese coriander (sometimes called culantro). You could try chives and sage too, but I haven't tried those personally.
