Lettuce Leaf Basil Seeds

About- Originating in Japan, Lettuce Leaf Basil is known for its enormous leaf size, and a more mild flavor and aroma. The large leaves make this Basil a great candidate to use in the place of Lettuce, for fresh wraps, or a big batch of Pesto. When and Where to Plant- Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost. Transplant when evening temps are above 45 degrees. Start seeds outdoors in late Spring when the soil temp has warmed. Choose a warm, full sun location with rich, well-draining soil. Care and Harvest- Basil does not need much, if any, fertilization. Be sure to keep the soil damp, but not soggy. You can start to harvest from your Basil plant when it is 6-8" tall. Harvest frequently to encourage more growth.  Planting Depth- 1/4" Days to Germination- 7-10 Seed Spacing- 1" Plant Spacing- 12" Spacing Between Rows- 12" Days to Maturity- 60-90 Approximate Seeds per Pkt- 300
