Basil Classic Italian is a traditional variety, boasting a unique clove-like taste. Its arrowhead-shaped, smooth green leaves offer a tasty addition to tomato-based salads, soups and sauces.

A short-lived annual that is sensitive to frost, basil does well in pots. It can be sown any time from late spring to summer in a tunnel, greenhouse, conservatory or on a sunny windowsill.

Plant Care Tips

Sow seeds 0.5cm deep into small trays of compost
Cover with a sprinkling of compost
Keep at a temperature of 15-25°
Alternatively, sow outside from late May to early July
Prick out seedlings into individual pots when large enough
Do not overwater. Basil hates sitting in wet compost
