Bertia lanhe

I grow both Lime Basil and Sweet Italian Basil.  Basil has antibacterial properties and enhances mucus membrane health.  All types of basil work as a fly deterrent as well. 

Basil makes delicious pesto when combined with olive oil, Parmesan cheese and pine nuts and is also wonderful when paired with fresh mozzarella cheese and home grown tomatoes with some balsamic vinegar drizzled on top, or assembled between two sliced of Italian bread as a grilled cheese sandwich.
