Notes
'Noga Prospera Active F1' basil (Ocimum basilicum 'Noga Prospera Active F1') is an herb for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. Its resistance to downy mildew keeps it healthy for extended harvests late in the season.
Pairs well with Sungold tomato, Parris Island lettuce, and Fernleaf dill.
