Hey folks!
I planted a bunch of herbs along the back of my garden bed, and a storm came along and swept away the tags. I think this is basil or oregano? But I'm not sure -- does anyone recognize it? It smells great, that's for sure!
Thank you!

I've got a similar situation, but I didn't plant these plants. Previous owner must have planted them. I don't even know if there are herbs, but I think they are. Got a ton of these in the corner of our planting bed. Can some one identify? Are these basil as well?[img]https://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/281776_2114879586201_1072038040_2432909_5755365_n.jpg[/img]

There are several varieties of Basil and the second post looks to be one of the basil family. I only grow the sweet basil and once tried lemon basil but found it not to my liking. Pinch off a leaf and smash it between your fingers to see what it smells like. I know the Basil smell anywhere but it is hard to describe in print.blowe wrote:I've got a similar situation, but I didn't plant these plants. Previous owner must have planted them.
