The basil does bolt when the heat rises mid summer but I prune it right back and it comes back immediately. I replant every year because it gets so woody. My chives have been in the same pot for 30 years and the only treat they get is the cold tea from the pot with the tea leaves. I also have curly and flat leaf parsley, but do struggle with coriander so rely on the farmers' market for that.<br /><br />Happy daysDelwynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16813713107604750354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155836879539082676.post-2561211569830891912010-01-16T04:52:21.184+10:002010-01-16T04:52:21.184+10:00One of my favourites too Delwyn.One of my favourites too Delwyn.Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13494219959077922220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155836879539082676.post-26780221050492342862010-01-16T03:59:31.033+10:002010-01-16T03:59:31.033+10:00Basil, the king of herbs.

Thanks for the comment on my blog. My daughter is loving her travels in Aus. She visited Noosa last week, stayed where you recommended and delighted in the coastal walks. I think Fraser Island is her next port of call. Thanks for the recommendation - she found the hostel one of the best she'd stayed in.<br />I hope you've settled into your new home well.<br />Elcmae.Elcmaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17588550714803234758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155836879539082676.post-44067212049394546182010-01-15T18:22:18.601+10:002010-01-15T18:22:18.601+10:00I loved this Ode to Basil!I loved this Ode to Basil!Jinksyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01686101468214361004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155836879539082676.post-51464297898418601582010-01-15T17:30:15.025+10:002010-01-15T17:30:15.025+10:00And why wouldn't you be?
