Basil Seeds - Sweet Thai Large Leaf
Description
An essential herb in Southeast Asian cuisine, Ocimum basilicum var. thyrsiflora ‘Sweet Thai Large Leaf’ delivers the signature sweet-anise aroma and licorice-clove flavor that defines Thai basil, but with broader leaves and a more generous yield. The lush, glossy foliage is dark green, accented by striking purple stems and blooms that attract pollinators while perfuming the garden.
Plants grow 20–24 inches tall with strong branching, thriving in full sun and warm conditions. The larger leaves make it easier to harvest for stir-fries, curries, and fresh rolls, while maintaining that unmistakable spicy-sweet bite beloved in Southeast Asian kitchens. The flavor intensifies when cooked, lending depth and warmth to savory dishes.
Originating from traditional Thai selections prized for vigor and fragrance, this large-leaf form combines authenticity with abundance—a perfect balance for gardeners who want the bold taste of Thai basil in a more productive, easy-to-grow plant.
