Purple Basil

Has anyone ever used it to make Pesto?

 

Was it any good? Did you make any adjustments to your recipe?

hey, i got mushrooms too, Do they have to go in the styrofoam box? That doesn't look very nice, but i don't want to put them in the open garden either/

If you put them in the garden they might spread.

Styrofoam is the way to do it, and they like the dark, so under the sink. You won't see them there either.

Mushrooms grow best somewhere humid, dark and cool.

This is the coloured chilli plant, how cool is that, eh? Pinks, purples, red, yellow and green, all on one plant! and they reckon if i prune it really hard, that it will stay small and bushy, rather than tall and spindly.

Crikey, aren't things that are allowed to grow, and encouraged to flourish, usually better?
