Hi Lynn - one pot big enugh for three herbs. One that is about 15 inches across at the top would work perfect!

I get those too. I think they're cabbage loopers. Other than picking them off by hand, I'm had also been spraying the leave with bT. My latest strategy is to spread out some diatomaceous earth atop the soil and plants. Hoping that will help.
