BIO Basil in a pot

The large-leaved organic basil has an intense aroma. The leaves are particularly suitable in Mediterranean cuisine, especially for salads and fish dishes. The very intense and aromatic smell is caused by the high content of essential oils.

Care instructions: The plant needs regular water, but there should be no waterlogging. To avoid premature death, not only the leaves but also the stems should be cut off.

Location: The organic basil prefers a sunny location and the soil should always be kept moist.

The larger pot keeps the basil fresh for longer.

Delivery size: large recyclable pot (13cm)

Flowering period: June - September

Winter hardiness: no
