Ocimum basilicum. This small-leaf basil forms a perfect 8-12 inch globe. Use the tender stems and tiny leaves for classic basil taste and aroma. The strong spicy basil taste and fragrance of this variety goes a long way flavoring any dish where larger leafed sweet basil is used. Use this spicy herb fresh or dried to add flavor to Italian, Greek or Mexican cuisine. The mounding shape of this variety works well in small gardens, containers or window boxes. Slow bolting, it also works well as a border plant.
