Lemon Basil is a fragrant small-leaf basil native to Southeast Asia, prized for its strong lemon aroma and bright citrus flavor. This variety adds a fresh, zesty note to fish dishes, salad dressings, marinades, teas, and summer recipes.

The delicate white flowers and flowering stalks can also be used in bouquets, releasing a refreshing lemon fragrance. Plants grow 18–30 inches tall and thrive in full sun to part shade with moderate water.
