Mini Leaf Basil – Pluto and Spicy Bush Varieties

Posted on October 16, 2019

Both varieties are dwarf basil that produce heavily branched plants with tiny, dark green leaves. The leaves have a good basil aroma and a fine basil flavor. The plants are compact, globe-shaped and reach 7 to 8″ in height at full maturity. Excellent for both open field and pot production, these varieties take longer to go to seed and do not need to be pinched back. They make an excellent garnish for your food dishes as well.
