A great way to get year-round Basil growing in your garden or pots. Larger growing than other varieties, it has woody stems and large aromatic, flavoursome leaves. Plant it in a warm position or a pot and protect from hard frosts. Ideally move indoors over winter to get the best from your plant. Similar in flavour to sweet basil, it has an added spiciness.
