Basil - Bush Spicy Globe (2.6" pot)
Annual. Adorable, tiny leaves form small mounds that are perfect for small containers. Their flavour adds a punch to soups or sauces.
Basil is one of the most popular herbs in the kitchen and for good reason! Whip up some fresh pesto, add to your favourite pasta dish, or use full leaves to top pizza. In the garden, it is a great companion to members of the nightshade family; plant next to peppers and tomatoes to improve their flavour and repel harmful insects. Many varieties will thrive in small to medium sized pots. They prefer moist, rich, well-draining soil, require regular watering and monthly fertilization. Protect plants from wind, heavy rains, and cold weather. Harvest frequently to encourage new growth. Preserve leaves by freezing or drying.
Harvest: Once a branch has 6-8 leaves, prune back to the 1st set. Always leave at least 1/3 of the plant intact.
Plant Height: 6-12”
Plant Spacing: 6-8”
