Basil

Latin Name: Ocimum Basilicum

A fragrant annual herb with bushy, upright growth and smooth green leaves. It thrives in full sun but can tolerate partial shade, and grows well in pots or containers both indoors and outdoors. Keep the soil consistently moist and harvest regularly to encourage fuller, bushier growth. Basil is a favorite for pesto, salads, soups, and pizza, and is also valued for its calming and digestive benefits. It grows especially well with tomatoes, peppers, oregano, marjoram, and marigolds, helping deter pests while enhancing garden health and flavor.
