Italian Mountain Basil

Ocimum basilicum


Oh boy oh boy! My favorite Basil of all time is back! I love hanging planters of this basil in the PiƱon trees here in our Forest Garden. It can take cooler temperatures than most Basils and just seems to thrive in the mountains. It is a delicious, sweet basil and it bolts later than most. The plants are a bit sturdier than some, with deeply green, glossy leaves.

I highly recommend trying this Basil not only for its excellent flavor, but for its adaptation to the mountains.

Direct seed into garden beds or start seeds about 4-6 weeks before the last frost.
