Greek Column Basil 'Lesbos' (Ocimum basilicum)



Growing in a container and 3 1/2 feet tall.

This is the seedling from the garden center--we will add another picture later in the season.

A 31" Greek Columnar Basil Plant, grown from a rooted cutting.

About a 40 inch plant, supported by a cheap tomato cage. Sharp eyes may spot "Waldo", the green grasshopper sitting on top of a 39'' ruler

Just a closeup photo of the 40'' plant.
