Planting and Harvesting Tips:
Grows well in sunny locations and prefers rich, moist soil. Start indoors 3-4 weeks before the last frost or direct sow — 1/8 in. deep — after all danger of frost has passed. Thin seedlings to one foot apart and trim back occasionally to keep plants tidy.

Harvest leaves and flowers as needed. For best flavor, pick in the early morning when aromatic oils are at their flavorful peak. Young leaves are best used fresh as plants do not dry well.
