Representing a new generation of disease resistance, Aya basil is perfect for field production and can also be used in greenhouses. The plant is semi-compact. The fragrance is very nice and the leaves a dark and shiny, with a lightly grooved flat spoon-shaped leaf. Very productive (with a heavy stem) and slow bolting. If you have been growing DM-resistant basil, but are still having issues, it may be a new strain to which Aya has resistance. Resistant to multiple strains of Downy Mildew and with IR to Fusarium.

A special selection by an Italian producer’s “Genovese Classico”. With improved uniformity, Superbo has a medium compact plant. The leaves are wide and spoon shaped with a brilliant green color. Very intense flavor. Superbo is the classic basil used for traditional “Genovese”bunching and for “pesto” for the processing market.
