The aptly named Emerald Tower basil towers above all other varieties, growing 60-90cm (24-36") tall in a compact column. This Genovese type works well in the ground, in containers, and hydroponics, with lush, dark green, flavourful leaves. Emerald Tower blooms up to eight weeks later than other basil, providing multiple cuts throughout the summer. It has been a show piece in our herb trials for several years. This basil is resistant to downy mildew and Fusarium.
