I'd add these, too, if I had more than five spaces:

1. Fennel, because it's delicious braised or caramelized and used all over the place
2. Chives / Green Onions because you can use them everywhere and they add SO MUCH flavor
3. Thyme because it's about my favorite herb and I will literally put it in almost anything
4. Lemon Balm / Mint because they're delicious in or as teas
5. Sage mostly because I like how it smells, but also because you can't make stuffing without it

Which herbs do you feel are absolutely necessary in a kitchen garden?
