Herb Herb's Basil 'Lettuce'
Ocimum basilicum

Just for something different, to add a bit of variety. Will be an excellent addition to salads. Looking forward to trying it as I have never grown or eaten this herb before.

    That looks fantastic! It really does look like lettuce doesn’t it? I’d love to know how it tastes…

    Thanks Nic. It tastes just like normal basil but a little bit milder. Haven’t had it in a salad yet though, that’ll be the ultimate taste test.
