Hi there

I planted a "ball basil" plant (the small leaf, bushy variety that grows into a large ball) into a small (8 inch round) terracotta container a month ago. It is looking to me like it may start flowering soon.... I am wondering if planting it in a small container is stressing it. Last year I grew the same variety in a raised bed. It grew quite large, and it did not even flower at all.

If I transplant it into the ground now, will it take and continue producing leafs?

thanks
