Making a break for it

Part of the basil plant must have been unhappy with its original placement, because there is one growing next to the parsley pot. That didn't grow so well - err at all this year and the mint is just overhanging its confines. But the mint is root bound and shouldn't be headed anywhere other than tea, deserts, and syrups. I almost feel bad that the basil ended up in the woodchips and not the parsley pot - at least then it would look like it was "home" and not standing sentry over an empty pot.
