Genovese is the large-leaved sweet basil bred over generations around Genoa specifically for big tender leaves and a balanced sweetness with none of the bitterness lesser basils carry. It is the only basil for a proper pesto.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe leaves are broad, glossy and richly green, with that warm clove-and-anise aroma that fills a kitchen the moment you tear one. A single pot on a windowsill scents a room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTreat it as the Mediterranean plant it is — warm, fed, and picked constantly. Water in the morning at the base and keep the leaves dry, since water sitting on the foliage overnight is what causes mildew. Pinch out flower spikes as they form; the flavour is at its best before the plant flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bishy Barnabees Cottage Garden","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53195305386317,"sku":"BSL-CLC","price":1.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0828\/6961\/6973\/files\/Basil_Classic_Italian_1.jpg?v=1775776087","url":"https:\/\/thefoalyard.co.uk\/products\/bishy-barnabees-cottage-garden-basil-classic-italian","provider":"The Foalyard","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
