More ornamental than many classic basil varieties, it makes a spectacular statement in pots, herb planters, urban vegetable gardens, and edible flowerbeds. Its fragrance is reminiscent of traditional basil, with a slightly spicy note, making it an interesting plant for both cooking and landscaping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEasy to grow, ‘Magic Mountain’ basil prefers a warm, sunny location in fertile, light, well-drained soil. It performs very well in containers, on a patio, or near the kitchen, where its foliage can be harvested as needed to flavor sauces, salads, tomato dishes, pasta, and summer recipes. Regular watering, without overwatering, helps maintain vigorous growth and flavorful foliage throughout the season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike many basil varieties that quickly lose their appeal after flowering, ‘Magic Mountain’ remains decorative longer thanks to its purple flower spikes and dense habit. Its flowers attract bees and pollinators, making it an excellent choice for productive and biodiverse gardens. This basil is ideal for adding color, fragrance, an edible touch, and a remarkable ornamental effect to outdoor spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pépinière.ca","offers":[{"title":"9cm \/ 3.5 inches","offer_id":57377234649248,"sku":"FINESHERBES","price":3.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/3878\/5440\/files\/Basilic_MagicMountain.jpg?v=1779900388","url":"https:\/\/www.pepiniere.ca\/en\/products\/pepiniere-ca-basilic-magic-mountain","provider":"Pépinière.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
