Organic Prospera DMR F1 Basil Seeds

Prospera F1 basil combines the rich, classic flavor of Italian Genovese basil with modern disease resistance, so you can count on lush, fragrant harvests even in seasons when basil can be tricky. This organic, non-GMO hybrid forms sturdy, upright plants with glossy, medium to large leaves that are perfect for pesto, caprese salads, and fresh kitchen bouquets. Whether you’re growing in raised beds, market rows, or patio containers, Prospera F1 keeps producing tender leaves with that unmistakable sweet, slightly spicy basil aroma.

Bred specifically to stand up to downy mildew and Fusarium, Prospera F1 stays greener and more productive when other basils begin to yellow and collapse. The tall, vigorous plants bounce back quickly after harvest, giving you a steady supply of leaves for fresh use or preserving. Pinch often, and this basil will reward you with branching stems and a long picking window from summer into fall.
