Lori ,
I was in the nursery yesterday and a chap bought a punnet of parsley and one of basil.
Prue who runs/owns the Wiltona Garden nursery said that now they have punnets where the little seedlings are now BUNCHED in 3’s…..Now this is for the reasons of those tiny seedlings are better propped up by others hence 3 together.
