Did you know? In the garden, basil (Ocimum basilicum) proves itself as more than just a culinary delight. With its aromatic prowess, particularly in varieties like Thai basil and lemon basil, it takes on the role of a natural insect repellent. The strong scent emitted by these basil cultivars acts as a deterrent, making them an excellent choice for planting around outdoor seating areas to keep mosquitoes and flies at bay. Beyond their aromatic defence, basil plants contribute to companion planting strategies, often standing sentinel alongside other crops. For instance, the pairing of basil with tomatoes is a classic combination in gardens, as the basil's compounds are believed to repel pests that commonly target tomato plants. This not only adds a fragrant dimension to the garden but also exemplifies basil's multifaceted role, offering both culinary delights and natural pest control benefits.
