Basil Everleaf Emerald Towers is a gorgeous, dark green, glossy leafed, columnar habit basil ideal for any garden. Traditional Genovese flavour is perfect for eating fresh in caprese salad or chopped fresh in recipes. It flowers 10 to 12 weeks later than standard basil, allowing huge harvests of leaves throughout the season. A well-branched variety with short internodes that makes a beautiful towering plant with huge harvest potential for in-ground, container, and hydroponic use. Thompson & Morgan presents this variety in their City Garden line — confirming its suitability for urban container and balcony growing — and describes it as a narrow, upright grower with long-lasting leaves. The most productive and longest-season sweet basil.
