• Reproducing:
  • Basil:
    • basil in water: I was surprised at how easy it was. I've got some basil from a farmer's market, tossed it in water to keep it fresh and was surprised that it rooted within a week
    • Give them good size cuttings with a strong stem. It should have a couple of nodes on it.
  • Creeping Thyme:
    • It just creeps along, and grows roots along the way, making it easy to break a section off
    • Jake: Thyme rooted in water within a few days.
  • Oregano
    • Propagate oregano by stem cuttings or crown division. Space plants 10–12 inches apart. Plants respond well to clump division every 2–3 years. This helps restore vigor and improve flavor.
    • Jake: The Oregano rooted within a few days
  • Chives
    • Chive will reseed prolifically if allowed to go to seed.
