Title

Basil - Sweet Genovese

Basil Sweet Genovese is a standard culinary variety, a half hardy annual that grows to 40cm. This aromatic herb has many culinary uses, especially in Mediterranean dishes.

Basil thrives in rich, well drained soil, in a warm and sheltered position. Pick the leaves as required, which are best used fresh. Pinch out the tip of the main stem to encourage bushy growth or prevent plants from flowering.

Indoors: Sow in March to April, 0.5 cm deep, in separate pots if possible. Plant out in late May, spacing 30cm apart. Outdoors: Sow in drills, in May, with thin to 30 cm spacing. All Year round: Sow in pots on the window sill.
