Any suggestions for what to do with in ground basil plants in fall/winter? Should I re-plant in a pot and bring indoors for the next couple seasons or would that shock them too much? I live on the West Coast, Eastern Washington state...

    Basil will die if exposed to a harsh winter, so potting them up and taking them inside is the usual way to protect them from freezing. You can check your local expected first frost and frost free dates to get a feel for when to move them

    As long as you pick a good pot with air flow. Repotting is perfect for this situation!

    Probably a good idea to take some cuttings and root them in case the mother plant gets too traumatized by root damage and general relocation shock. Good luck!
