Just a reminder: "Don’t forget to pick your Basil flowers and flower buds off and cook with them tonight.

Not only do the buds and flowers contain more flavonoids than are in the leaves but if you allow your Basil plant to flower and go to seed, it will die." #gardening #homeseading #herbs

I've never had a basil plant die after flowering.

They become more bitter, but not dead.
