Water from the bottom and keep it warm, who knew! I have systematically killed every single basil plant I have had and now I know why - watering it from the top. A major Doh! X
I bought a supermarket plant about a week ago and it’s started growing very quickly. I’ve potted it up today into a large terracotta pot. It looks very healthy so can’t wait to see how well it does!
My basil plants are arriving with my food shop this morning - any tips to keep my son from decimating them while they grow 😂thankyou so much for the guide 💚💚💚💚
This was such a great guide! I wasn't going to bother growing anything in my little apartment this, but you've inspired me! Do you think this would work with supermarket herbs in general? Like sage and rosemary?
I’m a serial basil plant killer, let’s see how this turns out!
Going to finally start my own basil journey. Probably Easter Tuesday. Thank you for the inspiration!
I will start following your advice tomorrow! 🙏
Wonderful! The beginning can be tricky but then they really thrive!
Fabulous! Thanks Leanne. I'm here for it.
Basil growers unite!
Ahhhh finally! I might be able to do this! Made me laugh at the end as well! Thank you xx

Aha! It’s the watering what does it 💦 ruddy marvellous thanks a basil bunch
We adore basil and use it regularly in cooking.

Thanks for the advice x
My absolute pleasure!!
I bought a supermarket basil on Easter weekend & was looking for exactly what you have written here. Thank you!
Amazing! Let me know how you get on with it!
It’s already looking better since I put water under the plant!
👏 incredible!

Hide them 🤣

Every year I try I’m giving this a go 🍃
Thank you for compiling this wonderful guide! I adore basil. I just moved to a smaller apartment and am now going to try your tricks.🌿
Good luck!! Let me know if you have any questions!

Yay!! It works with parsley, too! The others are trickier indoors in my experience. Rosemary and thyme like drought.
Starting today!!! 👍🏻😍
This is a game changer. I travel full time and ❤️ my traveling basil. I’m sure else appreciates your “fill the saucer” advice. Merci!
I am trying this. I’ve had success with outside basil (sometimes!) but inside never! Thanks Leanne!
