SWEET BASIL

BASIL
This is a beautiful, aromatic, annual herb with large, dark green heart-shaped leaves, a compact habit and white flowers that bloom in summer. A tried-and-true basil it is the backbone of Italian cuisine. Use fresh or dried to add flavor to all tomato based dishes, in pesto sauce, and salads. Pinch back to encourage bushier plants and to delay flowering.
