This exclusive strain, often called “lettuce leaf basil,” produces large, 4-inch leaves with a mild, buttery flavor and sweet fragrance—ideal for culinary uses where a softer basil note is desired.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe lush, textured leaves are especially well-suited for raw preparations. Use them as a flavorful salad green, in place of lettuce on sandwiches, or as edible wraps for fresh appetizers. Their ruffled surface holds dressing and sauces beautifully, adding both aroma and structure to any dish. Try layering them with cheeses, cured meats, or garden vegetables for light, fresh hors d'oeuvres.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ePlants grow 12 to 18 inches tall and thrive in full sun with well-drained, fertile soil. Direct sow after the danger of frost has passed, or start indoors and transplant into beds or containers. For best flavor and continuous harvest, pinch back regularly to encourage bushy growth and prevent flowering.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eLooking for more herb or vegetable seeds?
