Last spring I tried <a href="http://basicherbgardeningtips.com/growing-basil">growing basil</a> from seed. I started out in tiny peat pots and I literally just pushed the seeds into the peat and watered them. I was amazed when they actually sprouted! Within a month, they were big enough to transplant and I had a nice little basil plant growing right in my windowsill ready to be transplanted into the garden this summer.

I particularly like basil and I use it in most of my recipes. I have a herb garden myself and I mostly use culinary herbs for cooking. I really like cooking and using herbs in my recipes does improve the flavor substantially. I have a potted herb garden and because I live in Canada I move the whole herb garden inside during the winter. I have a “sweet spot” for chives and basil.

We are also growing chives and sweet basil along with a few others. We started from seed and I can only hope that they turn out as beautiful as the ones in your pics.
