An attractive basil variety with red stems and vibrant red flower heads, Siam Queen boasts a distinct anise flavour highly sought after in Thai cuisine. Its vibrant flowers are suitable for decorating salads and curries for an extra touch of colour.

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.
