Thai basil seeds, grown in a pot in your kitchen or balcony will bring truly authentic southeast Asian flavours to your kitchen. Thai basil leaves are often used to top steaming bowls of Vietnamese pho, and are used widely in many other dishes across Thailand, Lao and Cambodia.

The leaves are longer and pointier than Italian basil, and have attractive purple stems and shoots. The plant is also said to bring good luck if you keep a leaf in your pocket!

Packet includes 120 seeds. Plants grow to 40cm tall and 20cm wide.
