An improved selection of Thai Basil with a strong licorice flavour and glossy green leaves.

Prized for both its culinary use and ornamental qualities, especially when left to fully mature and show off its attractive lavender flowers.

It is a tropical basil, so don't sow too early in the season as it prefers warm nights and fertile, well drained soils in the sunniest but sheltered part of your garden.

Also makes an excellent potted herb for indoor growing.
