(a.k.a. Mammoth Basil) This wonderful Italian heirloom has huge puckered leaves and is excellent for pesto and for seasoning tomato dishes. The leaves are so mild and flavorful they can even be used whole in tomato sandwiches. In 1865, Fearing Burr in Field and Garden Vegetables of America wrote, "The leaves of this variety are large, pale green, wrinkled and blistered like those of some kinds of lettuce." This variety of basil was also described in Vilmorin’s The Vegetable Garden (1885). One of the best varieties of basil! Highly recommended! Annual.

50 seeds per packet.
