Lemon basil recognizes its herbaceous culinary composition by displaying heady aromas and notes of citrus, specifically lemon and lime. The plant's narrow, ovate, light green leaves reach two inches long, producing lemon-scented white flowers and seeds. Lemon basil should never reach flowering during the harvesting periods, once left to flower its flavor is sacrificed and the leaves wilt and toughen.
