A robust, upright basil with compact mid green flat leaves with a slightly curled edge. Ideal for growing in pots all year round on Windowsills. Sow: All Year round Plant: May to June HARVEST: All year round 

WHERE TO SOW: Sow seeds 0.5cm (¼") deep, in small trays of compost and lightly cover the seeds with a sprinkling of compost , and place at a temperature of 15-20°C . Alternatively sow direct outside in April and May into shallow seed drills.


WHAT TO DO NEXT: Prick out seedlings individually to 7cm (3") pots, once large enough to handle. Grow on in cooler conditions , then gradually harden off plants in a cold frame before planting out after risk of frost has passed. Transplant to final positions 30cm (12in) apart or into larger containers, or grow a few in pots on a light windowsill all year round. Direct sown seedlings can be thinned to 15-30cm (6-12in) apart and harvested as required.

HANDY TIP: Should be added to cooked dishes only minutes before use to retain the strength of flavour.
