Eg, basil or rosemary (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

herb

I believe this is a double definition.

'eg basil' is the first definition.
(I know that basil is a type of herb)

'rosemary' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for herb that I've seen before include "Medicinal or culinary plant" , "like Basil" , "Basil, perhaps" , "Chives or coriander, say" , "Useful or edible plant" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
