Blue Spice Basil

$3.75

Ocimum americanum basililicum 

Heirloom variety.  This beautiful and fragrant basil is hearty and loved by bees and pollinators.  It has a fruity complex aroma and flavor.  To me this has the strongest aroma of all basils that some describe is similar to tooty fruity gum.  Can start in small pots and transplanted outdoors after temps are warm enough.  Not frost tolerant.  Full sun.  Will self seed if flowers are left to dry.  Can also be direct seeded in spring. 

Ready 60-75 days                

Average 50 seeds per pack
