Basil "Magical Michael"
|
AAS Vegetable Award Winner
An ornamental, edible sweet basil with a clearly refined plant size and shape, 'Magical
Michael' plants are uniform and reliably 15 inches tall and 16-17 inches wide. This
uniformity is rare in sweet basil plants. The lush aromatic, green leaves can be harvested
within 30 days of transplanting and are rich in essential oils for cooking. Plants may
flower when mature in about 80 to 90 days from seed. The small flowers are a curiosity
since the calices are purple and corollas white. They are attractive for use as a garnish,
adding color to any salad.
