Harvest and Care Tips

This package containing 1000 seeds is sufficient to meet your continuous fresh basil needs throughout the season. When the plant reaches about 15 cm in height, if the top parts are picked, it will branch out more to the sides and achieve a denser form. Removing flower stems when blooming begins ensures continued leaf production.
