Basil, Lettuce Leaf
Leaves are Jurassic in size but pleasantly mild in flavor, making Lettuce Leaf basil incredibly versatile in the kitchen. This sweet basil is just a bit more subtle than Genovese. It is great for making gallons of pesto, tossing into fragrant salads, and perfect for making delicious “Lettuce Leaf Basil Wraps.” Productive and beautiful. Huge 6-inch leaves are great in size and nutritious, containing vitamin A and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and potassium!
