A few weeks ago I made an online order and part of it was for some basil.
The picture just showed basil leaves but it came as a living pot plant.

I wasnt really sure what to do with it, I guess the idea is you pick leaves off it as you go, but to me that just seems weird.
I couldnt do it, it would be like keeping it prisoner while I ate it slowly keeping it alive.
So Ive kept it as a pot plant and its started to flower which I never knew basil did.
Pause Switch to Standard View Sainburys delivered a basil plant.

It's a very lucky little basil plant to have such a kind caring owner Happy

I once read that plants give off a very high frequency 'scream' if you pull bits off them.
They also can sense when the person who did it is close by, by only doing it when that person re enters the room.
make of that what you will Cool

Basil doesn't flower!

What you have is a second year Cannabis plant!

Guard it with your life....
