Ocimum basilicum 'Aristotle' is grown for its compact habit, small leaves, and attractive flowers.

It has been our experience that Ocimum basilicum 'Aristotle' does not perform well in our area. It has been observed to develop fungal problems and overall poor health in the heat and humidity of our summers, making it only attractive for a short period of time during the spring months.
