Oh well. I call it our salsa and curry garden. Herbs are here at the house and we have tons already. But, what was labeled thai basil was clearly not. Not sure what the heck it is but has no scent or taste.>>>>>>>

What herbs and spices are you growing for salsa and curry, may I ask?

Well thai basil was supposed to be one, LOL. Cinnamon basil is still good along with sweet basil.

We are growing hot peppers primarily for salsa and curry. Habaneros, super chiles, thai dragons and cajun belles.

Spices are lemon grass and basil for curry. For salsa, it is mostly cilantro, but lemon sage as well.

Others are rosemary, tarragon, lavender, sage and thyme.
