Lemon Basil Microgreen Seeds
Our non-GMO, untreated lemon basil seeds produce delicate, aromatic microgreens with a fresh citrus twist. With their bright green leaves and sweet lemon scent, these microgreens are perfect for adding zesty flavour to salads, seafood, Asian dishes, and desserts.
Lemon basil grows well in trays with soil or coir and develops a soft texture and clean flavour. Though slower to germinate than some greens, the unique taste and uplifting aroma make them a standout choice for home growers, chefs, and caterers.
These seeds are packed in 100% compostable, resealable, and plastic-free pouches, ideal for sustainable growing with minimal waste.
