Basil Red
Basil Red
There are many types and varieties of basil to choose from. We come across hundreds of varieties of basil, others with smaller or larger leaves, with different colors, tastes and aromas. It is important to mention that most varieties of basil are annuals while there are also some perennials. Depending on our preferences, we can choose curly, broad-leaved, Genovese, nightshade, red (purple), saint or tree basil.
Watering basil needs special care, as many basils dry out from overwatering, showing yellowing of the leaves and root rot. We water the basil every 2-3 days, in small quantities, while on hot summer days we water it daily. It is necessary to check the soil with our finger before watering and to repeat the watering of basil only when its soil has dried.
