Cinnamon basil has a lovely sweet and spicy aroma, thanks to the plant containing a compound called cinnamite. Use it as a garnish for culinary dishes or to flavour hot drinks.

Harvest regularly to encourage bushy growth, and fertiliser sparingly (too much will reduce the fragrance of the leaves). Keep well watered and in partial-full sun. This variety flowers later than other basils so you can enjoy the leaves for longer!

Germination: 10-14 days under ideal conditions.

Best before date: Dec 2021

Cinnamon Basil, 50 seeds

$3.00

Full/partial sun (minimum 6 hours daily)

Well draining, organic medium

Moderate fertiliser schedule (half strength, once every 2 weeks)
Moisten the seed-starter medium (a commercial mix, or a light and airy medium such as cocopeat)

Sprinkle seeds on the medium and use a spray bottle to water gently as the seeds are very small and delicate.

Cover with clingfilm or a transparent plastic cover to keep the moisture in.

Monitor and ensure the medium never dries out.

Not keen to use it right away? No problem! Store in a cool, dark and dry environment (back of the refrigerator). Seeds will remain viable for at least a year.
