Star of Many Basils

Star of Many Basils

How much do I love Basil? Enough to give it its own star within the Edible Universe. “Star of Many Basils. I once grew twelve types of basil on my apartment balcony. And then I kept going. But did I hit my limit? Last year I grew so many that I wondered if we could count them. But then we did. 26 varieties are in this star: African Blue, Basilico a Foglie di Lattuga, Cardinal, Cinnamon, Corsican, Dark Opal, Dolly, Fine Green, Gemma, Genovese, Green Pepper, Largo Dolce per Vasi, Lemon, Lettuce Leaf, Magical Michael, Napolitano, Palla Verde Scuro, Persian Basil, Piccolo Verde, Red Rosie, Red Rubin, Siam, Snowball, Spicy Globe, Thai Holy Kaprao, and West African. Plus a halo of grape leaves. And, yes, my blooming artichoke at the center. Ok, maybe I’ll stop at 30 next year. You don’t have to grow 26 types of basil as we did, but you should believe you can #GrowYourOwnArt. Even within just one flower pot, you can build a green space and your own vision of Ecotopia
