 Ballibabagiller (Lamiaceae) family is a one-year plant that forms the genus Ocimum and usually grows in temperate regions. Adult basil sizes usually range from 20 to 60 cm. Homeland is South Asia. However, with the Mediterranean basin countries it is often grown in the Aegean and Mediterranean coastline in Turkey. Its square cross-section, with a puffy strip and a green body, turns red as the plant reaches the base. Oval-shaped leaves are toothed edges, pointed and dark green in color. The flowers that bloom in late summer are white, pink or yellowish white. Small seeds are dark brown and tear-shaped. Both fresh and dried basil is widely used in cooking or raw eating.
