Basil, Spicy Globe

In stock

£0.60 / pack(s)


Spicy Globe grows in a unique ball shape without trimming.  They reach 25-30cm in size and can be used as edging or accents in small pots or indeed indoors. And that spicy flavour, almost peppery with the sweetness of basil, is perfect for pasta, bruschetta, salads, quiche and soup.  The little leaves can be used whole.

Price for 50 seeds
