Basil Crimson King is so named for its unusual colour. The half&45;hardy annuals leaves are unremarkable in shape, for they are traditionally cupped in appearance, but notable for their violet tone. This vibrant alternative to green basil is thus an excellent, ornamental herb while still performing well in terms of function & flavour.
