Basil-Genovese, Ocimum basilicum
This classic large-leaved Italian sweet basil, prized for its flavor and heady aroma, is a top pick for many cooks when making pesto. Fragrant plants grow 18-24″ and produce densely branched plants when pinched back regularly. Can be chopped and frozen in olive oil for winter use. Pinch back flower stalks as they appear to keep plants from bolting. Prefers rich well-drained soil. Keep a plant in a sunny window in your house to use as needed.
