BASBU
Basil - Bush
Basil bush is excellent for growing in pots. It has small white scented flowers. It is a mildly sedative herb and traditionally the dried leaves were used as snuff (traditionally).
Basil Bush is a compact herb with small, aromatic green leaves and delicate white flowers in summer. Ideal for pots and herb gardens, it enjoys a warm, sunny, sheltered spot with well-drained soil. Use the leaves in salads, sauces and pesto. Pick regularly and pinch out flower buds to encourage fresh, leafy growth.
- Plant in a warm sheltered position in light, well drained soil.
Thrives in dry conditions.
Water plants during dry weather but let the soil dry out between waterings.
Pick off owers as they develop to stop it going to seed and promote foliage growth.
