Perennial herbs are usually permanent planting, so place them in a spot which won't be affected by rotation.

Annual herbs and flowers, as MoS says, can go in anywhere.  The only caveat I would add is that those which are brassicas would probably do best in the brassica bed.
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...
