Basil works best for me...I trim the leaves every 4-6 days and blend them with garlic and shelled pistachios for a nice Pesto!

@MsKathleen I have to admit that while I do grow it only in water....I use a hydroponic "machine" complete with lights and occasional automatic watering....but it is, in fact, grown with "just water" (and a few nutrients).

All plants need some sort of nutrients. Water does not contain any nutrients. The plants can make some of their necessary food through photosynthesis but eventually they will die from lack of their essential mineral needs.

I did not know this. I wonder if you need to change the water every few days, and also give them a little water soluble plant food? There was no information about my question. 😉

Yeah, if you don't have cats maybe 🙂 My girlies would mess those up so bad, and I really don't have good sunlight for most indoor plants. I love my trees, but I miss having houseplants.
