Not only does basil smell wonderful, but it also tastes even better. The Genovese basil that we use has large, dark green, and intensely aromatic leaves that are perfect for refining dishes and can also be used for cooking and to prepare pesto. This ever-popular herb is easy to grow and delicious to eat. It is also one of the most rewarding herbs as it can go from seed to harvest in just 3-4 weeks! Basil loves moist soil so be sure to water it daily and keep it on a nice sunny windowsill. This Basil Sprigbox is an all-inclusive garden kit containing natural seeds and a special growing media. The only thing missing is water and a loving home.
