Basil Greek Bascuro Seeds (Ocimum minimum)

Price: Package of 50 Seeds

🌿 Greek Bascuro Basil is an extraordinary variety of basil that combines intense aroma, exceptional flavor, and a compact growth habit. The plant grows in a bushy, mound-like form, often compared to a tiny oak tree or “Lilliputian Oak,” making it both visually attractive and ideal for cultivation in pots, balcony boxes, or small garden plots. Despite its small size, the leaves emit a rich, sweet basil fragrance and have a full, robust flavor, making them perfect for culinary applications such as fresh salads, sauces, pesto, garnishes, and infused oils.

This basil is highly valued for its slow-to-bolt nature, which allows gardeners to enjoy the fresh leaves over a longer growing season. This slow bolting characteristic, however, makes seed production more challenging, as the plant requires early sowing and careful cultivation. Nevertheless, home growers and herb enthusiasts prize Greek Bascuro Basil for its consistent performance and reliable flavor.

In addition to culinary uses, Greek Bascuro Basil carries a charming cultural tradition. In Greece, it is customary to place a sprig of this basil behind the ear to mask unpleasant odors such as tobacco smoke and to attract attention from the opposite sex. This tradition highlights the plant’s dual role as both a functional herb and a symbolic, aromatic companion in daily life.

Growing and Care Instructions:

  • Family: Mint (Lamiaceae)

  • Life cycle: Annual

  • Harvest: First harvest in approximately 70 days

  • Location: Sunny spot with well-drained soil; suitable for pots, terraces, or balcony boxes

  • Watering: Keep soil evenly moist but avoid waterlogging

  • Maintenance: Pinch growing tips to promote bushy growth; regularly harvest leaves to encourage continuous leaf production

  • Temperature: Prefers warm, moderate climates; avoid frost

This variety is perfect for gardeners looking to grow a high-quality, aromatic basil that thrives in containers or small spaces. The seeds provided are fresh and tested for germination, ensuring that each sowing will produce healthy, vigorous plants with strong aroma and flavor. With proper care, Greek Bascuro Basil can be grown easily indoors or outdoors, making it a versatile and rewarding addition to any herb collection.

Fresh, Tested Seeds: Guaranteed germination and top-quality plants for your culinary and ornamental needs.
