Life is "mind over matter". If I d
Tante---

I have loads of Thai Basil seeds. Now--these may be just regular Thai basil seeds.
They have an Anise taste and smell. Probably not the spicy ones you are talking about.

Sweet basil is the most common one used here. it has oval, slightly puckered leaves.
When i smell it--I always think of Chicken. I have somw seeds from this basil
as well as some lemon/Lime basil. So Jill named it when i first started collecting basil seeds.
Does not mean that is the official name.

You asked:
"What are those small bulbs that I bought from you? I have not planted them yet. You told me to plant them about 1 inch of soil topping them---I should write everything!"

I am sure these small bulbs were crocus bulbs.
They come up and bloom in pretty early spring. You can plant them when the weather gets
really cool--or if you plant them now--they may start coming up too early.
