My Dorian Gray basil plant

Months ago I planted these Basil seeds. The miniscule plants did almost NOTHING after germinating, flat out zippo. They wouldn’t grow and they wouldn’t die. I’ve never had seeds do that, not like this. (Fortunately for me, since I am mad for the delectable annual, I grew another pot with different seeds so that I did produce a bit of Basil. Whew.) Still, because they were alive and not in the way, I kept the pot, watered it and such ALL summer. Very recently, ONE seedling in the Dorian Gray pot decided to age grow after all. Excellent timing Basil! Now that summer is over.

Oh boy! Pesto any day now.
