My experience is the opposite.
And I never dry my herbs, I find 90% of the flavor gets lost. I always freeze them.
Once I have used up the herbs that I have grown, I buy fresh and freeze those as well. I just separate them into amounts of 2 or 3 sprigs (that is the amount most recipes call for) and freeze them in saran in those amounts. Then I put the small packages into a plastic bag that is of freezer quality and if stored for a long time, I wrap that bag in foil as well.
