A tall, columnar Genovese-type basil, reaching 24–36 inches (60–90 cm) with a modest width of 8–12 inches (20–30 cm). Glossy dark-green foliage with classic Genovese flavour and subtle licorice-mint notes. Designed to flower 8–12 weeks later than standard basils, extending your harvest season into late summer or early fall. Offers strong resistance to downy mildew and Fusarium—common basil diseases—making it more resilient in warmer climates.
Growing Conditions:
Sunlight: Full sun is essential—at least 6 hours daily
Soil: Rich, well-draining, fertile soil. Add compost at planting and side‑dress with balanced fertilizer occasionally
Spacing: Maintain 20–30 cm (8–12 inches) between plants to allow the columnar habit to develop.
