Don't leave basil out in the cold!

Store freshly cut basil on your kitchen counter in a glass with the water level covering only the stems. Change the water occasionally. It will keep for weeks this way, even develop roots! Basil hates to be cold, so NEVER put it in the refrigerator.
Also, regular cutting encourages new growth and healthier plants.
