Basil Seeds - Anise - 4 Oz ~8,000 - Culinary Herb Gardening & Microgreens Seeds - Non-GMO, Heirloom, Open Pollinated, Annual

Basil-Anise is unique in that it has zesty basil flavors with sweet licorice-like flavors incorporated. Plants have dark green leaves with purple stems, and blossoms are a red-purple color, and become a light pink-purple color when they have fully flowered. Plants grow 2-3’ tall. Sow seeds indoors in cooler climates, and outdoors after the final frost in climates with a warm spring.Plant seeds ¼” deep in well drained soil. These plants can help keep flies and other insects out of the garden. Using fertilizer can help promote growth. Leaves are ready for harvest after around 85 days, and can be picked off the plant, rinsed, and used in dishes. Their sweet unique taste makes a great addition to sauces, and can flavor meats and vegetables. They also make great pesto.
