BASIL, PURPLE SACRED - Ocimum sanctum (NEW THIS YEAR!)
(A/16-20")(FS) A new purple-leaved cultivar of Sacred Basil. Grown near temples and in gardens all over India, this sacred herb is thought to help the spirit have a safe passage to the next life. The clove-scented leaves are used in salads and other dishes but lately we have been hearing about Sacred Basil used to make tea.
