what's this? I've labeled it as basil but it doesn't look like basil to me.

I agree, it doesn't look like Basil to me either. Rub a leaf between your fingers, you'll be able to smell if it is Basil. Not sure what it is though, sorry.A garden is a lovesome thing, God wot! (Thomas Edward Brown)

I tried that scarey, I think it might be sage? Don't label things after a glass of wine lol

It could be... There are various varieties one of which may have leaves like that. The smell and taste test will confirm one way or the other.Last edited by iGrow; 19-04-2014, 06:04 PM.Comment

(Hugely off topic for a moment) I was the first ever person to ask Toyah for her autograph. Must've been about 1978, when I was 15, at Eric's club in Liverpool. She wasn't anybody then; I think her and her band were supporting The Damned or someone (it was an amazing couple of years in that club) and when silly teenager me went over to her and her band, sitting at a table after their set, and asked for her autograph, she nearly fell off her chair. Still got it in the loft somewhere.
Anyway, Basil ...Comment
