Correspondingly, can basil plants come back to life?In most circumstances, it does not grow back after a year. Perennial herbs return after a year; annuals take a little extra work. In frost-free locations, this plant can perform as a short-lived perennial. Basil may survive for two years before replanting in warm climates.Secondly, how do I know if my basil plant is dying? Basil plant droop that appears suddenly on young plants is often caused by fusarium wilt, a fungal disease that causes stunted growth and droopy, wilted or yellow leaves.

Fill a large bowl with ice and cold water. Remove any bruised or blackened leaves, and then submerge the wilted herbs, stems and all, into the ice bath. The cold water will shock the herbs back to life. Depending on the herb and just how wilted it is, this could take as little as 15 minutes to as long as an hour.Why do my basil plants keep dying?Basil likes soil that is slightly moist—never wet and never dry, which causes wilt. Although a wilted plant recovers quickly once it’s watered, repeated stresses (wilt/water/chill/wilt/water) will take their toll. Once the roots start dying off, it’s hard to reverse the process. Keep an eye on the weather.
