I purchased two of these for a dollar each at Walmart. They are a new plant for me and they are globe basil. The smell is wonderful and I will get them planted in the next couple of days. I have to keep them alive long enough to enjoy the leaves with the tomatoes.
I am a sucker at collecting about everything. Once I have two I need to buy a third variety. I have more than three hardy geraniums and this is my new dollar addition. I bought it for the leaf coloration. It is great. I just transplanted it into a larger pot in hopes that it will grow bigger to fill it.
It is Thursday and it is only a two day week so that is good. It will be hot and I will drink water continually for the day. It is the non air conditioned area that we will be working in today.
Thanks for stopping by my post today.

Larry, I know what you mean about having the basil with the tomatoes. Already the basil is seeding itself and I keep cutting off the tops and bringing several shoots indoors. They do keep when placed in some water and are very handy when cooking. We've had a few tomatoes already.
A great bargain on both plants Larry !
Ooh, the basil will be lovely with your vine-ripened tomatoes, enjoy :)
