Holy Basil (Tulsi)

Ocimum sanctum. Holy Basil has been regarded as one of the most important herbs ever discovered. Used for centuries in herbal teas for their soothing properties. It has been used to shorten flu symptoms, aid in respiratory function, and ward off the common cold. Holy basil grows much like traditional basil varieties but does not bush as much. This variety produces flowers quickly to attract pollinators. Does well indoors when the weather changes. When pruned Holy basil remains compact.
