Lemon Basil

Ocimum basilicum

Certified Organic

Microgreens Suitable

Strong aroma, great fresh or in cooked dishes.

Delicious chopped up and tossed on nearly any salad--especially grain salads, where the basil and citrusy notes make the flavors brighter and tangier.
Can also be added to sweets, like muffins and breakfast breads for a bit of local lemon flavor.

Growing instructions
Direct sow after frost, or start indoors up to 1 month before last frost date. To have fresh basil the whole season, start in succession at one-month intervals. Pinch off tallest growth in order to keep basil from flowering; flavor becomes too strong once in bloom. Good for garden or container plantings.
