Basil Small Leaf (4″ pot)

This Basil is just as decorative as it is useful! Small Leaf Basil gets its name from its petite foliage that forms a tidy globe shape that looks great in any container or in the garden. Like all Basils, the leaves are excellent for seasoning all types of cuisine, and they can be dried and stored for future use.

Basil is most commonly used in pesto sauce, cabbage, cauliflower, carrots, spinach and zucchini, vinegars and salads. Try planting next to tomatoes – aromatic herbs help to attract beneficial pollinators, and some say that Basil even helps to improve tomato flavour.
