Description
Greg Greek Basil is a compact, highly aromatic basil variety prized for its dense, globe-shaped growth habit and dark green, miniature leaves. This unique Greek-type basil naturally forms a tidy mound, making it perfect for containers, raised beds, borders, and window boxes.
With its smaller leaves and concentrated flavor, Greg Greek Basil is ideal for fresh use in the kitchen—especially for pesto, sauces, salads, and garnishes. The compact growth means less legginess, fewer trims, and a consistently attractive plant throughout the season.
This variety matures quickly, with the first harvest typically ready in 55–60 days, and continues producing with regular cutting. Plants stay under 12 inches tall, making them easy to manage and well-suited for tight garden spaces.
Why you’ll love Greg Greek Basil:
- Dense, naturally rounded growth habit
- Dark green, mini leaves with strong basil flavor
- Excellent for containers, borders, and small gardens
- Fast to harvest and easy to maintain
