Lemon Basil ECO

Ocimum basilicum citriodorum

Lemon Basil ECO

Ocimum basilicum citriodorum

Nice aromatic green foliage with flavor and scent of fresh lemon. Excellent in salads, as a topping, with fish or in vinegar. The leaves are medium-sized and can be used both fresh and dried in tea which is a real treat.

We highly recommend making ricotta salmon with potatoes and lemon butter sauce topped with lemon basil, a clear favorite with this variety.

If you have lemon basil in the greenhouse, in the conservatory or on the windowsills, it smells absolutely wonderful!

(A big plus for this variety is that it is also organic!)
