Why this Organic Large Green Basil stands out

• Large Green Variety: generous and fragrant leaves, perfect for rich and visually appealing aromatic preparations.
• Organic and untreated: certified organic seeds, grown without chemicals, for basil that is safe to use in cooking and for children.
• Easy to grow: suitable for both vegetable gardens and balconies, tolerates growing in pots and on terraces, ideal for both beginner and experienced gardeners.
• Sustainable yield: once germinated, the plants produce generous leaves throughout the season with regular pruning.
• Fast harvest: first harvest possible approximately 60 days after sowing, depending on conditions, with leaves ready to use from the beginning of summer.

How to grow it easily

• Growing conditions: full sun or abundant light, in fertile, well-drained soil. For pots, choose a container at least 20 cm deep.
• Sowing and planting: sow in rows or shallow lines, then thin to leave 2–3 cm between each plant. Transplant into pots or directly into the ground once the seedlings are well established.
• Watering and maintenance: water regularly without allowing water to stagnate. Pinch the stems to encourage branching and prevent premature flowering, which prolongs the production of aromatic leaves.
• Harvesting: pick leaves as needed, preserving the central stems to encourage continuous growth.

Ideal for whom and for what

• Perfect for home cooks who want to add fresh basil at any time—in pestos, vinaigrettes, juices, and tomato sauces.
• Ideal for small spaces: balcony, terrace, or mini indoor vegetable garden, without compromising quality and aroma.
• Suitable for Italian, Mediterranean recipes, and all your culinary creations where the scent and flavor of fresh basil make a difference.

Practical tips and added value

By growing this organic basil yourself, you avoid wilted leaves in stores and benefit from a more intense aroma from the first harvest. To prolong freshness, snip the leaves just before use and store them in a damp butter dish or a perforated plastic bag in the refrigerator. If you enjoy culinary experiments, keep a few stems for a light infusion or to garnish your grilled dishes with a green and fragrant touch.

Our Fine Herb Seeds – Organic Large Green Basil offer an authentic gateway to homemade aromatic pesto, bright salads, and subtle desserts where basil brings an unparalleled green note. Start your sowing and savor the difference of fresh basil grown at home.
