Grow a truly special and revered herb with our Holy Basil, or Tulsi, seeds. Known as "The Queen of Herbs" in Ayurvedic tradition, Holy Basil is one of the most sacred plants in India. It is prized not for culinary pesto, but for its use in wellness teas. The leaves have a unique, complex aroma with notes of pepper, clove, and anise. The plant itself is beautiful, with slightly fuzzy green leaves, purple stems, and delicate lavender flowers that bees adore.
