Description
(Basil) There is nothing better than garden fresh Basil! Pesto Besto™ is downy mildew resistant Italian Sweet Basil. Standing 18-30 inches tall and spreading to 24 inches wide, we recommend planting Pesto Besto™ in a full sun location. This vigorous herb produces a high yield and has tasty, aromatic, and delicious leaves. Make sure to trim your basil often to promote fresh new growth. Pesto Besto™ reaches its full size quickly in about 4-6 weeks. You should be able to start harvesting within a couple of weeks of planting. Pesto Besto™ was bred to flower late, but if flowers emerge, we recommend trimming them back. Create your favorite salsa, pesto, and pasta dishes with Pesto Besto™ Basil.
