Sweet Basil

This herb is known around the world for its wonderful fragrance and flavor.  Sweet Basil has big leaves that are fast and easy to grow. It loves hot weather, so always wait until all danger of frost is past before planting in the garden in the spring, then harvest before the weather starts to cool down in fall. Great for containers, but be sure to keep watered. If you were to grow only one herb, this should probably be it.
