Basils are loaded with volatile oils, responsible for the heady aroma and strong flavor so essential to cooking. Basil Minimum is full of pungent oils for a very strong flavor in one of the smallest of plants. This dwarf is perfect for ornamental use in edging or in containers. Pick the leaves and use fresh or dried in tomato dishes, pasta sauces, vegetables and soups.You can also use it in the garden as a companion plant to repel aphids, mites, and tomato hornworms. Minimum grows only 6 to 12 inches high and wide. The tiny medium green leaves are only 1/2 inch long. Small terminal racemes of white flowers are borne in summer. Grow in a rich, well-drained soil in full sun. Pinch out growing tips to encourage bushier plants and to delay flowering.Pkt is 100 seeds.
