Basil plants are fragrant herbs that are a staple in many culinary gardens and dishes. This plant is known for its shiny, bright green leaves and scent. Basil is an annual herb that can grow up to 18 inches tall. Basil’s vibrant leaves can be used in everything from pesto and salads to soups and sauces. Basil adds color and fragrance to gardens, attracting pollinators like bees or hummingbirds. While easy to grow in containers or garden beds, Basil requires regular watering and protection from cold temperatures. Pruning and harvesting basil regularly helps to promote new growth, ensuring a continual supply of fresh leaves throughout the growing season.
