Soil Requirements — Well drained soil |
Planting Advice | Sow in the growing position, 5mm deep, spaced 30cm apart. Keep moist. Seeds can be sown year-round in pots. Basil thrives best in a sheltered position with well-drained soil. Staking the plants with bamboo prevents them collapsing in adverse weather. Pick the leaves as needed and remove flower heads to keep the plants producing vigorous leaves. |
