Notes
'Amazel Basil' sweet Italian (Ocimum 'Amazel Basil') is an herb for food gardens, containers, and pollinator gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, loamy soil. The fragrant leaves smell like classic Italian basil. Its summer blooms attract bees.
