Please find for sale 200+ fresh Dark Opal Basil seeds. One of the easiest herbs that you can grow, for me basil represents the taste of summer - grilled on fresh bread with somehome grown tomatoes, some olive oil and a pink of salt! Yum! Basil can be grown all year round - in winter it is happy in pots on a sunny window sill.
