Thai Tower Basil seeds
Thai Tower Basil, or Ocimum basilicum 'Thai Tower,' is a striking and highly productive variety of basil that adds both visual appeal and a unique flavor profile to any garden. This cultivar is named for its distinctive, columnar growth habit, which creates a tall, tower-like shape that is perfect for container gardening, small spaces, or as a beautiful focal point in a herb bed. Its glossy, deep green leaves are complemented by tall, majestic purple flower spikes, which not only attract beneficial pollinators but also make for an eye-catching display. Beyond its ornamental qualities, Thai Tower Basil offers a spicy, anise-like flavor that is essential for authentic Southeast Asian cuisine, particularly in dishes like curries and stir-fries. Easy to grow and prolific, it's a must-have for any gardener looking to combine beauty with a delicious culinary harvest.
