Sacred Basil Seeds

Ocimum africanum

 

This herb is also know as Tulsi Basil or Holy Basil. Spicy clove scented basil with purple flowers. Also makes a very aromatic border plant. Considered a sacred plant in India. Used in traditional medicine, ayurveda, and as an insect repellant with stored grains. Bees love it!

 

More hardy than Ocimum tenuiflorum, or tropical holy basil.

 

Seed Germinating Tips: Plant outdoors in spring after danger of frost, or indoors 6 weeks before last frost. Cover seed 1/8” with fine soil, pressing firmly. Keep moist.

    Sacred/Tulsi Basil

    Bought these seeds while at the wonderful Mother’s Day event last weekend. We were a bit disappointed when we found only 8 seeds when the website says there are 50 seeds in each package. Can you please let us know how to get another complete package. Thank you and we appreciate your packaging of the seeds.
