Basil 'Mrs Burns Lemon and Lime'
approx. 100+ seeds
This is a great heirloom basil developed in 1920s, it is similar in smell to lemon basil but not closely related, instead is more closely related to sweet basil. The variety has the strongest lemon scent and flavor of all the lemon basils, and also has undertones of cinnamon and mint and hints of spice along with a strong floral note. Slow to bolt, tolerates heat and drought well.
