Greek Basil

The Greek Basil has small leaves, with a curious compact development, similar to a large ball, without the aid of any pruning. The aroma is that of the classic Basil but with an aftertaste reminiscent of Oregano. It is more resistant to cold than others and is considered by many to be the best variety in the world. On my site you can find numerous types of Basil, for me the best in addition to the Greek Basil, are the Giant Basil of Naples and the Genoese Basil. It is planted from May to July in large but not deep pots such as planters with universal soil (90%) and pumice stone or expanded clay (10%), place the seeds about half a cm deep, water once and keep it all. shade until the seedlings are born, which should happen within 4 - 6 days.

The sachet contains 100 Seeds, a quantity more than sufficient to obtain numerous fresh basil jars on the balcony or the vegetable garden.
