Botanical Interests 6093 Herb Seed, Purple Petra Basil, Ocimum Basilicum, 500 mg

A mild, sweet taste that is perfect for those who love basil's flavor, but shy away from too much herbal spiciness. It's excellent in a variety of dishes, including pesto, pasta and salads. Purple Petra also makes a lovely pink-tinted vinegar or oil. Grow it as a companion plant for your tomatoes or in other areas of the garden as an ornamental. Try pairing it with lemon drop French marigold or bells of Ireland for vibrant contrast.
