About This

• Ocimum tenuiflorum. Non-GMO. Open-Pollinated. 100 days to harvest
• High germination rate - 87% with current lot
• This is a superior strain of Tulsi/Sacred/Holy basil, with a more compact growth habit and more pungent sweet flavor. It is also more cold hardy than most other basil strains.
• Makes a great tea that boosts the immune system and increases oxygen uptake in the brain. Also used in Ayurvedic medicine as a poultice on acne, ringworm, eczema and insect bites. Spicier than other basils and quicker to go to seed, but still usable when covered with purple flowers.
