With its large, bright green leaves, it adds depth and aromatic richness to a variety of dishes, from pesto to pasta sauces, salads, and even soups. This versatile annual thrives in warm, sunny conditions and can be easily grown in containers, garden beds, or window boxes. Italian Basil grows quickly, offering a continuous harvest of fresh leaves throughout the summer.

Planting Tips:
Full sun and well-drained, fertile soil are key to strong growth.
Space plants 12-18 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation.
Water regularly, but avoid over-watering as basil prefers slightly dry soil between waterings.
