This grower routinely overseeds their pots - I can get 8 or 10 basil plants out of just one pot (and have every year I've been here). Ditto fennel and dill. The only plant from this grower that DOESN'T come with multiples is French Tarragon, and that's because it has to grow from cuttings. French tarragon doesn't have seed.
So I'm pretty sure those are all separate plants. But I'll go ahead and plant them as is, I can always thin it out later, right? I'll take pictures as they grow, maybe you guys who know more about this than me can continue to guide me through cultivating this unfamiliar-to-me-but-long-desired plant.
I really appreciate the help. I've wanted these plants for so long, and I'm probably only going to get to enjoy them for a few months. I'm setting the whole front yard up to be a butterfly garden. If I were going to be here longer, the whole yard would go to the birds, bees, butterflies, and other wildlife. I'm guessing when its sold whoever buys it will just end up ripping up nearly everything and putting in that pernicious weed that passes for grass, Bermuda grass, then pouring poison on it 3 times a year and wasting a lot of water trying to keep it alive in what is almost but not quite a desert, LOL!
So I want to make the most of the time I'm going to have with the flowers and the butterflies and hummingbirds. I don't want to kill anything off through my ignorance!
