Licorice Basil is a unique and aromatic herb known for its anise-like flavor and vibrant purple flowers. Perfect for adding a sweet, licorice-like taste to salads, sauces, and beverages, this basil variety is both a culinary delight and a visually appealing addition to any garden.
Unique Qualities:
Growing Season:Licorice Basil thrives when planted in late spring after the danger of frost has passed, preferring full sun and well-drained, fertile soil. It requires regular watering and benefits from pinching back the tips to encourage bushier growth and prevent flowering.
Time to Harvest:Expect to harvest your Licorice Basil approximately 60-70 days after planting. The leaves can be harvested as needed, with the best flavor found before the plant starts to flower. Regular harvesting promotes continuous growth and ensures a fresh supply of flavorful leaves throughout the growing season.
