'Evivi Ntor Basil' (Ocimum basilicum 'Evivi Ntor Basil') is an herb for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and sandy or loamy soil. Bees and butterflies visit its fragrant flowers. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. It also tolerates dry spells.
Pairs well with Oregano, African marigold, Nasturtium, and Borage.
