{"product_id":"mrs-burns-lemon-basil","title":"Seed Collection: Mrs Burns Lemon Basil","description":"Mrs. Burns’ Lemon Basil is a legendary heirloom plant that has been grown since the 1920s, when it was owned by Mrs. Clifton of Carlsbad, New Mexico. She gave the seeds to Janet Burns, an organic gardener, who introduced the citrusy, aromatic herb to the world in 1939. Its intense lemony flavour meant that it became an instant hit with fine chefs and gardeners alike! The lemon-scented, light-green leaves can be used in cooking, eaten raw and even added to baked treats. Funnily enough, Mrs. Burns’ Lemon Basil (AKA Ocimum basilicum var. citriodora) is not actually a variety of lemon basil; it is a kind of sweet basil. And a total one off.  \n\n\u003c!--StartFragment--\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQUANTITY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e60 seeds\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePLANT SIZE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeight \u003c\/strong\u003e40-60 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWidth \u003c\/strong\u003e20-40 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCONTAINER SIZE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeight \u003c\/strong\u003e20 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWidth \u003c\/strong\u003e20 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCOMPANION PLANT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTomatoes, peppers, oregano, parsley, garlic chives, alpine strawberries\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c!--EndFragment--\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003c!--StartFragment--\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSOWING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIndoor \u003c\/strong\u003eFeb-Mar\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutdoor \u003c\/strong\u003eApr-June\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTIMING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination \u003c\/strong\u003e5-10 days\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarvesting \u003c\/strong\u003e40-60 days\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPACING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen sowing \u003c\/strong\u003e1-3 cm; Depth 0,5 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen thinning \u003c\/strong\u003e3-5 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGROWING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSunligth \u003c\/strong\u003eFull sun to partial shade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSoil \u003c\/strong\u003eWell-drained, light and moist soil\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering \u003c\/strong\u003eRegular watering, not overdone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeeding \u003c\/strong\u003eLight feeder\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCARING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExpert tip \u003c\/strong\u003eTo promote a nice bushy plant with lots of lemon-scented leaves, prune this basil early and often by pinching off the upper set of leaves.
