Mentha x piperita f. citrata ‘Basil’

Basil mint is rather unminty, but in a rather exciting basil-like way and is delicious used in salads, with tomatoes, savoury dishes, etc, etc. No doubt a cocktail or two would be enhanced by its unique flavour. It is NOT a hybrid of Basil and Mint like some berks might have you believe! Hardy, vigorous and easy, this is often best kept potted to avoid it spreading too fast into other things. Lilac flowers in late summer. Height 60cm.
