Ocimum citriodorum 'Pesto Perpetuo'

0 offers

Basil (Ocimum citriodorum 'Pesto Perpetuo') is an easy-to-grow plant with green-tinted, red leaves. It has a strong, sweet smell and taste that is commonly used for pesto. Its uniform growth makes it very ornamental, and its contrasting vein pattern adds interest. It's also drought tolerant, once established. Basil can be harvested all summer long with a few cuttings each week to ensure continuous production. It's perfect for gardens, containers, and indoor plants. Be sure to keep it well-watered and in a sunny spot for the best results.
