Basil Plants

Basil is one of the most popular culinary herbs, loved for its highly aromatic leaves and essential role in fresh Italian cooking. It thrives in warmth and sunshine, making it a perfect choice for small gardens and window boxes, or even a bright kitchen windowsill where you can snip leaves as you cook. Beyond its flavour, basil is an attractive plant in its own right, offering glossy green or purple foliage that adds colour and texture to any space.

It’s also a brilliant addition to mixed containers - try placing pots of herb plants near outdoor seating areas so you can pick a few leaves to garnish your supper straight from the plant. Whether you’re growing it for its beauty, its fragrance or its versatility in the kitchen, basil is a must‑have herb for gardeners of all levels.

Explore Our Basil Plant Collection

Our basil plant collection brings together fragrant, sun‑loving varieties perfect for pots, windowsills and warm garden corners. Basil thrives in bright conditions and well‑drained soil, producing soft, aromatic growth that’s ideal for cooking. When your plants arrive in spring or summer, they’ll settle quickly into a sunny spot, whether indoors or outside.

If you’re growing basil outdoors, it’s worth acclimatising young plants for a few days to help them adjust to cooler temperatures. Once established, basil grows vigorously through the warmer months, offering lush foliage and that unmistakable scent. With classic green basil, colourful varieties and richly flavoured types to choose from, there’s something here for every kitchen garden.
