Basil (Ocimum basilicum), an aromatic herb belonging to the mint family, is perhaps best known as the key ingredient in pesto – that savoury Italian sauce made from olive oil, garlic, crushed pine nuts and loads of fresh basil leaves. It is very easy to grow from seed and the leaves can be plucked direct from the plant for all your culinary and herbal needs.
