A great variety for pots and drying, it has small leaves and is highly fragrant. Easy to grow, full of flavour and great for pesto’s and sauces. A great cut and come again plant that doesn’t develop tough stems like other varieties can do. Can be grown in a bed or pot, although a pot has the advantage of being able to easily be moved to a warmer position once temperatures fall, extending the season. Keep it in a frost-free position.
