Sweet Basil (Ocimum basilicum) is a popular culinary herb grown for its aromatic and edible leaves. It performs well in sunny locations with moist, well-drained soil and can be grown in garden beds, containers and other suitable growing spaces.
These Sweet Basil Seedlings provide growers with an established start compared with beginning entirely from seed. With proper watering, sunlight, nutrition and regular harvesting, the plants can develop into productive, bushy herb plants.
Sweet basil is widely used in cooking and can be harvested fresh as needed. Regularly pinching growing tips and flower buds can encourage a more branched, bushy plant.
