Lemon Basil (Ocimum basilicum citriodorum) has a delightful lemony citrus flavor that will brighten up many dishes. Although this variety is shorter and has smaller leaves than most basil, don't be fooled. The zesty flavor packs a punch. Seed packet contains 400 MG (about 330 seeds).
Growing basil can be a versatile addition to the herb garden indoors or outdoors. Large, premium seed packets give instructions on how to grow and when to plant outdoors.
Basil is a tender annual and prefers sunny locations with rich soil. Start indoors for best results and transplant out after all danger of frost is passed. Pinch off flowers as soon as they appear to extend harvest. Can also be grown indoors if given plenty of light.
