Wait, basil?
Rosemary, I get (and also thyme, btw), but basil? At best, the dried out stalks of a basil can look a bit woody, but that’s true for a lot of plants.

When Basil matures, especially after it flowers it gets pretty woody

Yup, gardeners are encouraged to cut off the tops of basil so that it doesn’t flower (and then it doesn’t turn woody).
