Anyone know of a place where I can get some Italian-style basil seeds?

We bought seeds from several flower market stalls in the pet and flower market across from B & Q in the NE side of the city. We also bought some from seed vendors in the Chen Gong, the wholesaleflower market south of the city (no. 12 bus). Chinese cooking generally doesn't use this herb, but people do use it keep mosquitoes away! By the way, Metro almost always has large packages of basil in stock at a reasonable price.

Thanks.

I have a few extra packets that were shipped from the Victory seed Company in the US. If you would like one I can offer you one at 28RMB

I saw them at Dounan yesterday. I think the Chinese name is 驱蚊草, as in "herb that keeps out the mosquitoes"
