Tulsi, also known as sacred basil, is widely grown in India. Beautiful light green leaves with a tinge of purple on stems. Use fresh or dried.
How to Plant: Ease of Germination: Easy. Start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost. Or you can start your basil when you start your outdoor garden plants, at the end of May. Sow seeds just below the soil surface, keep soil moist until seedlings emerge. Seed will germinate in 5 to 10 days. Pinch off flowers when they appear to keep the plant producing new leaves.
