Ocimum basilicum citriodorum
Our newest basil introduction is a striking plant!
Basil 'Pesto Perpetuo' is a wonderful culinary basil with the distinct basil flavor and a hint of lemon. A lovely plant that grows light green leaves with creamy variegation with a columnar growth habit. Very unusual for a basil and this is definitely an eye-catcher!
This basil is easy to grow, and insects and diseases seem to ignore it! It's a prolific basil so you can expect great yields.
Basil is also a fantastic companion plant and natural pest repellent. Check out Briscoe's Tips to learn what not to plant near your Basil and how you can use it to keep mosquitoes away this summer!
