B&Q - Sweet Basil (10-20Cm Height Including Pot) Garden PlantClassic Culinary HerbCompact Size
Sweet Basil is a lush and highly aromatic herb cultivated primarily for the sweet, peppery flavour found in its soft, bright green leaves. This distinct taste, which features notes of anise, clove, and mint, is released instantly when the foliage is torn or bruised and is easily destroyed by excessive heat. It is traditionally used as the defining ingredient of Italian cuisine, serving as the base for Pesto Genovese and the perfect partner for ripe tomatoes and mozzarella in Caprese salads. This plant is typically grown as a tender annual that thrives in warm, sheltered environments like sunny windowsills or greenhouses. It is extremely susceptible to cold and will turn black and die at the slightest hint of frost or chilly drafts. For the best results and largest leaves, plant it in a location with full morning sun, though it appreciates some shelter from scorching midday heat. It is not drought-tolerant and requires fertile, well-drained soil that is consistently kept moist through regular watering. Please Note: When purchasing plants please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only - The plant will be supplied in a growers pot.
