Culinary & Growing Tips
Everleaf Emerald Towers Basil is perfect for classic pesto, caprese salads, margherita pizza, pasta dishes, and fresh garnishes. The robust flavor holds up beautifully in cooking or used fresh. Harvest leaves regularly by pinching stems just above leaf nodes to encourage bushier growth and continuous production. Plant in full sun with well-drained, fertile soil. The columnar habit makes it ideal for containers, small-space gardens, and intensive plantings where traditional spreading basil would overcrowd. Water consistently and fertilize regularly for maximum production.
