This is an exciting addition to the world of basil: a basil -- a basil with a lemon/citrus fragrance and flavor which makes it particularly good in vinegar, with fish, in salad dressings & sauces, and in oils. Great in pesto and other standard basil dishes, too. There is no herb more useful than Basil. In a warm, south window, you can grow basil indoors in winter. One packet plants a 25-foot row.

Seeds started indoors on 15 February 2009.
No seeds germinated by 24 February 2009 (all other basil started at the same time did), so reseeded indoors 24 February 2009.
