SKU PAU-SEED-BASIL-LEMON
A natural cross carrying a distinct lemon note in the leaf — closer in use to a herb than to Italian basil, and superb torn over grilled fish or steeped in water. Grows exactly like sweet basil and wants the same pinching regime. It runs to flower a little faster, so be firmer about it.
