Basilica – Greek Dwarf

Basilica Greek Dwarf is a lovely, compact variety with small, tiny leaves and characteristic intense, classic basil scent. The plant forms small, dense, round bushes height approximately 10 cm, making it ideal for pots, containers or flower bed borders. The leaves are small but very aromatic, and the taste is distinct and fresh – perfect for use in fresh dishes, salads, sauces and pesto.

The Greek Dwarf Basilica is easy to raise and thrives in sunny, warm locations. Due to its shape and dense growth, it is also extremely decorative, which is why it is often planted as an ornamental herb. Regularly picking the tops encourages even stronger growth and a long-lasting fresh crop of aromatic leaves.
