Amazel Basil® Sweet Italian Basil (Ocimum hybrid)
Amazel Basil® is the first Italian sweet basil that is resistant to downy mildew, a disease that often plagues basil. And since it’s sterile, this large, vigorous plant produces a higher yield of usable, deliciously aromatic leaves.

- Annual except in zones 10-11
- Plant in full sun (6+ hours daily)
- Space plants 12-18 inches apart for best results
- Produces edible foliage from spring through fall
- Great for containers, raised beds, herb gardens
- Heat tolerant, edible
Care: Fertilize weekly with Proven Winners® Water Soluble Plant Food for best performance. Best grown in the landscape, although a large container can work as well.
Harvest: The more you harvest, the better it grows. Harvest sprays of leaves by cutting stems just above two new sprouting lateral branches to get lush regrowth.
