La Plante Basil, large green
Partie de la plante: Bark
Origine: France
The “Pistou” of the Provençal people is a plant native to India that has been acclimatized in Europe since time immemorial. This perennial herb, which can grow up to 50 cm high, is generally cultivated as an aromatic for salads, soups and meats around the Mediterranean and in most temperate regions of the globe. As in ancient times, modern medicine recognizes Basil’s action on digestive disorders in nervous people.
The plant, which is best used fresh, is also a sedative. It was once prescribed to treat hysteria. Crushed fresh leaves are also said to soothe skin irritations.
