how far apart should i plant my small parsley and basil plants

1 Answer

Answer :

parsley does well in a clay pot....the trick is to put one pot down and the one with the parsley up......the worms have not figured out how to get there.  Basil should also be planted in full sun.  We also have planted parsley in a bigger pot and we have an outside shelf where it does very very well.  Basil will get very tall....if you get seed pods....just cut them off and drop them down or save them for next year in a paper envelope.
