I planted basil for the first time last year, it was such a success that I bought more last week. Most of the basil was planted in a large container, but I had a couple of plants leftover so I put some in this clay pot. That just wasn't enough so I tied a piece of red gingham fabric around the top and popped this basil sign in the dirt. We make a lot of grilled pizzas in the summer and I love fresh basil on mine. I really enjoy going outside and picking a few pieces of basil instead of going to the market and paying $3.oo a bunch. I really liked how the pot came out, so I went to Jo Ann's and bought a few more signs, they were 1/2 off $1.99 For about $10.00 I made three more. I think they will make nice gifts. I know my Mom will just love one.
