Seed Catalog Description: From Fedco Seeds - Ocimum basilicum
(65 days) F-1 hybrid. This lustrous purple basil lures you from across the garden with its broad dark lightly ruffled gently serrated leaves wafting a swooning aroma of allspice, nutmeg and light musk. Noting the 12–14" stature and well-branched uniform habit, you bend to pluck a tender leaf. Savory with mild pungency, the flavors dance on your tongue. As weeks follow, Round Midnight slowly reveals spikes of purple flowers. Seduction complete.
