Growth Habits & Planting Instructions: Elidia Basil is a delight to grow, suitable for both novices and seasoned gardeners. It's adaptable, flourishing in containers indoors or beds outdoors.

Choose a location with good sunlight, though Elidia can tolerate some shade. Regularly water, keeping the soil moist but not soggy. As the plant matures, it's recommended to pinch off the tips to encourage bushier growth. Harvest the leaves regularly to promote new growth and prevent flowering, ensuring you have a steady supply of this aromatic herb.
