This variety is late-flowering, so leaves can be harvested for a much longer period of time than other basils.
Product Description
Product Description
One of the best varieties for making pesto, with the characteristic Italian flavor - sweet and savory, not spicy. Grow this one in a pot where it can get lots of sun, while still in easy picking range of the kitchen. Fresh is best, but the leaves may be pureed with olive oil and frozen in ice cube trays for easy use after the season is over.
