Basilicum

Ocimum basilicum

Ocimum basilicum is an annual herb from the Lamiaceae family, native to tropical Asia and the Indian subcontinent, where it has been cultivated for thousands of years. It has bright green, glossy, aromatic leaves and small white or purplish flowers arranged in spikes at the stem tips. Its intense, sweet, clove-like scent, which comes from essential oils such as linalool and eugenol, makes it one of the most widely used culinary herbs in the world.
