Description: Wild basil is a weakly scented perennial herb whose leaves can be used in the preparation of food. It is a good colonizer of open ground, and so can be readily found in quarries, waste ground, hedgerows and scrubby grassland across the UK. It produces several pinkish-purple flowers between July and September.

Height: 10-40cm

Flowering time: July to September

Colour: Rosy-purple

Management: Wild basil copes well with annual hay meadow management techniques.

Kindly be aware that as autumn approaches, our wildflower plants might be delivered in a state where they appear to have passed their peak. We strive to inform you about this at the time of your order. It is common for native plants to exhibit leaf blotches or have dead/brown leaves during specific times of the year; this is entirely natural. We assure you that we meticulously inspect the root condition, ensuring their robust health. Once planted, the plug plant will respond accordingly.

Please understand that owing to the perishable nature of our plug plants, the usual right to cancel does not apply.
