Basil Seeds - Spicy Globe
Description
A tidy powerhouse of aroma and flavor, Ocimum basilicum var. minimum ‘Spicy Globe’ forms compact, rounded mounds covered in hundreds of tiny, fragrant leaves. Despite its miniature size, the flavor is bold—sweet at first bite, then peppery with a touch of clove and cinnamon. It’s a basil bred for balance, beauty, and intensity, ideal for both culinary and ornamental use.
Plants mature to only 8–12 inches tall, naturally shaping into perfect spheres of dense foliage that resist bolting and stay lush through the hottest months. The small leaves are perfect for garnishes, salads, and pasta dishes, offering the same rich taste as larger basil types without the need for chopping.
Originally selected from dwarf Mediterranean varieties, Spicy Globe embodies the essence of compact elegance. Its controlled growth, high yield, and vibrant scent make it a favorite among gardeners who want continuous harvests in limited spaces—a little plant with a remarkably big personality.
