Ocimum basilicum cv. 'Columnar Greek' - Basil

Columnar Greek is a perennial cultivar of basil which grows erect as a column, up to 1 m tall. It has a standard basil flavour, with a slight cinnamon overtone in taste, making it excellent for many Italian, Greek and Asian dishes. It is also very interesting, because it can barely flower. It seldom flowers and only a few branches will bloom, with beautiful purple terminal leaves and pink flowers.
