Emerald Towers Basil
EVERLEAF Emerald Towers Basil
A new selection of basil for gardens with limited space, this cultivar grows upright throughout the summer with a much-delayed flowering cycle that translates into more Genovese-flavored basil leaves to enjoy in the kitchen. Strong, sturdy plants up to 3 feet in height don't need staking when grown in moderately fertile, well-drained soils in full sun. Free of most insect and disease problems.
