AnnualOcimum basilicum. As the name suggests, Mammoth basil is a robust variety known for its large, ruffled leaves that can grow up to 4 inches long. This basil is prized for its intense, sweet aroma and flavor, making it ideal for pesto, salads, and culinary dishes. Mammoth basil's impressive leaf size and vibrant green color add a striking visual element to gardens and containers. Remove flowers on this variety to promote larger leaf growth.
I planted it twice. It either didn't germinate or died before it got 1/2"tall. I have grown 11 other basils this year and they germinated, and I have healthy plants from them. Disappointed.
Order came quick.
By far my favorite Basil. The green leaves a very large and have a beautiful curly look. We eat them fresh and dehydrated them all summer long.
Lives up to its name. Gorgeous large leaves. Milder flavor compared to the genovese basil. And looks gorgeous in a pot.
These plants are massive! I plant a ton of basil every year and these plants dwarfed all others. I got so many leaves off them that we had a pint of fresh pesto in the fridge at all times and I was able to freeze over 2 gallons of it, that's in addition to what we ate fresh and dried for use over the winter. I'll be planning more of this next year!

I grew this pepper plant in a 20 gallon pot and it did very well. It produced dozens of small peppers that were spicy—hotter than your standard jalapeno. I put about 3 of these in my salsa to spice it up along with 5-7 whole jalapeños (I roast them which takes out a portion of the yea). This little plant produced so many peppers that I froze a gallon bag of them to use in recipes throughout the year.
I am loving this squash! It grows so long and has beautiful leaves. I grow it upward and loves it! I have harvested at least 3-4 on one plant already. The remainder of the blooms are male, and I am not sure if I will have any more. :( I have, however, planted more in the mean time hoping I will harvest as many as this one. I will definately grow more!. Thank you!
All is well and great service...
So far, everything we have purchased has had an almost 100% germination rate. And what sprouts has grown quickly and strongly. We are now big fans of MIgardener seeds!
I’ve had issues trying to germinate seeds bought from big box stores. Come to find out they are old and a waste of money. MI Gardener seeds are fresh, germinate quickly and stay good for years. My Pablo lettuce is still growing and I look forward to harvesting and eating it!
