This compact Genovese-type basil has a true, clean flavor, and the spirited aroma that’s just right for preparing recipes that call for a classic basil taste and fragrance. The brilliant green, oval leaves grow densely on mounding plants for many harvests through-out the season. Exhibiting notable disease resistance, Profumo is a superior performer in both the garden and greenhouse. Compact plant habit makes it a stellar choice for containers.
