Default Anyone tried Greek Columnar basil?

A few years ago, we were at a B&B and the owner had a huge garden. She had a basil that was tall and narrow, about 3 feet tall - she called it Greek Columnar. It does not flower under most conditions, so is available only from cuttings. This makes it particularly useful, since it does not bolt - just grows and grows till frost...it is great for pesto as well. We managed to let ours die off...need to find myself a cutting and start it again.

if anyone comes across this basil, be sure to grow it!
