Singularly attractive Thai basil yields an extended harvest of aromatic leaves ready to flavor soups, salads and curries. Flowering late in the season, ‘Batik’s basil magic show is worth the wait. Take note as burgundy-purple flower spikes grow more prominent — a striking contrast to the lighter violet flowers and green foliage.
