Licorice Basil Seeds

Overview
Licorice Basil (Ocimum basilicum var. thyrsiflora), also known as Anise Basil or Thai Basil, is a versatile culinary herb prized for its distinctive sweet-anise flavor and striking ornamental appearance. This Thai basil variety grows tall and upright, producing bright green leaves with prominent purple veins and beautiful deep burgundy flower spikes. Both the foliage and blooms are edible, offering gardeners a dual-purpose plant that enhances both the kitchen and the garden.

Key Features
• Unique Flavor Profile – Delivers a soft, natural licorice-anise taste that elevates sauces, soups, stir-fries, and salads.
• Ornamental Appeal – Features attractive purple-veined foliage and showy red-purple blooms, making it a beautiful decorative plant for gardens, patios, and windowsills.
• Versatile Culinary Uses – Ideal for seasoning sauces, as a garnish, in salads, or infused into oils and vinegars.

Growing Instructions
• Spacing Thin plants to 20-30 cm apart to allow room for their tall, bushy growth.
• Sunlight Prefers full sun (6–8 hours daily) but tolerates partial shade.
• Watering Water regularly to keep soil evenly moist; avoid waterlogging.
• Harvesting Pick leaves individually as needed. For best flavor, harvest before flowering.
