Basil and Italian cooking go hand in hand. Make pesto and jazz up any pasta dish or salad with this must have staple herb. We grow many varieties - but the Bolosso Napolitano is our favourite variety. Their leaves grow as big as your hand!
New varieties for 2020/2021:
Nufar Basil
Fusarium-resistant Italian large-leaf type.
Leaves up to 4" long. Sweet scent and flavor. Intermediate resistance to Fusarium wilt. Ht. 24-30"
Newton Basil

Consistently produces a classic basil flavor (without the strong notes of anise typically found in basil of this type). Uniform plants. Very similar to Nufar in plant/leaf type and appearance, but slightly later to flower. Leaves up to 4" long. Intermediate resistance to Fusarium wilt. Ht. 24-30"
Amethyst Basil
The only purple Genovese type basil.
Large 2–3" wide, turned-down leaves. This stunning basil is nearly black in color. Purple flowers and red leaves make an attractive garnish. Ht. 16-20".
