Any plant will grow in the sand if it is watered (mechanically, if need be) according to the plants needs. If you mean "what herbs grow in the sand naturally?" .... I have seen Datura aka jimsonweed grow in the sand... of course there are lots of herbs on this list. Also, did you mean medicinal herbs?

Sand is a nutrient poor soil. So growing crops in sand is quite difficult. The major use of sand is as a medium for hydroponics. Get the correct solution for the crop you want to grow and use a drip system to irrigate and fertilize, at the same time. With the proper climate, you can grow almost anything in sand.
