Alchimiaweb presents Basil seeds by Rocalba, an edible flowering plant originally from India. It is one of a select group of aromatic plants used for both culinary and medicinal purposes.
Basil is a widely used plant, and its flower offers the same properties as the leaf but with more potency. Among its uses, infusions or seasoning in dishes such as salads are outstanding.
It has remarkable health properties such as an effective antibacterial and anti-inflammatory power and certain stimulant properties among others.
Its aroma also acts as a mosquito repellent, very useful to bear in mind especially in summer, and it is a great incentive to fill the house with pots.
It is an herbaceous plant with a much ramified structure, with flowers that grow in the form of spikes (if pricked, it increases the plant's aroma and development). It is widely adapted to all types of climates and is easy to care for, which has led to its widespread use in gardens and gardeners. It requires frequent watering for optimal growth, one of the most important factors to be considered by the grower.
