Re: Purple Basil, etc.

Watch out for that comfrey, Marie.  I know it's very attractive 
& it attracts many pollinators but it rivals mints for taking 
over.  Also like mints, any tiny bit of root that is left, as 
you are tearing it out in frustration, will give you yet another 
plant.  You can also cut it several times each season ~ makes 
wonderful mulch.  I just lay the cut stalks down.
