Basil has long belonged to more than just the plate. We grow these aromatic annuals for their vibrant colors and irresistible scent, not only as herbs but also as unusual greenery for summer bouquets. They look great and work perfectly as edible flowers that will liven up any garden party. Original varieties come from the warm regions of Asia and Africa, which is why basil requires a sunny and sheltered location here. They thrive best in well-drained, nutrient-rich soil with regular watering. Whether you reach for the classic green variety with a lemon scent or try the deep burgundy cultivars, each will pleasantly scent your garden and terrace. We grow mature, well-rooted seedlings in pots for you. You just need to find them the right sunny spot, and you can start harvesting leaves for seasoning dishes or for fragrant floral arrangements right away.
