Has slightly smaller foliage compared to sweet basil, but is closely related, and has beautiful purple stems and purple veined leaves. Has a more intense flavour with a hint of liquorice and is popular in Asian cuisine. Harvest leaves regularly to promote new growth and relocate indoors if growing in pots, when the weather starts to cool to prolong your season.
