Plant Tips

Sweet Genovese Basil (Common basil) is an annual bush which grows up to 60cm high. Popular for culinary dishes as well as dressings and marinades.

Leaves are a sweet, spicy flavour and have a soft texture. Perfect for use as a garnish, making pesto or adding flavour to dishes.

Warm sunny position is ideal. A great companion plant for tomatoes and it can also deter nematodes.
