Ocimum kilimandscharicum, known as Kenyan Basil or Camphor Basil, is a perennial — even perpetual — species of basil.
The leaves are the main event on this variety - dark, fragrant, dramatic, medicinal and magnificent. The aroma released has a strong camphor scent - making it all the more dramatic.
Flowers are produced during the summer - long, narrow flower spikes bearing small, cream-white two-lipped flowers that open over several months.
Medicinal, edible, used in sauces for pastas or main dishes, fresh or dried - this is a wonderful solution for those who cannot keep their basil alive for more than a few days.
