I am going to take a guess since Portuguese is close to Galician...
Alho frances - I think it might be "shallots" oregaos - oregano alecrim- rosemary rosmaninho - rosemary or lavender (or so says wiki and the pictures look the same) poegos... ??? don �t know

alecrim and rosmaninho are the same plant; so these are rosemary in English
lavanda and alfazema are the same plant - these are lavander in English.
The first are aromatic herbs used in food and tea; the latter are for pot-pourits (scent). |

Lavendar is also sometimes sugared and used to decorate small cakes.
