Basil (Ocimum basilicum) Aromatic annual or biennial with bright green, elliptic leaves and small, tubular white or pink-tinged flowers. The Latin word basileus means king: in ancient times these leaves were used to create perfumes for monarchs.
Perfect for indoor pots or outdoor containers, basil is a kitchen essential—ideal for pasta dishes, salads, sauces, and homemade pesto.
Growing tips:
To plant during Spring, Summer and Autumn!
Simply harvest with a snip and let them re-grow. Be sure to leave some of the beautiful flowers that emerge for wildlife!
These herb tubes work well in window boxes, balcony pots, garden beds, and wildlife gardens, making them ideal as gardening gifts, eco-friendly stocking fillers, or thoughtful presents for friends and family.
One tube of seed bombs will cover 1 square metre in a garden bed or 3-5 medium sized pots (leave at least 10cm between each ball). Best scattered in Spring or Autumn.
