Description
Holy basil, also called tulsi, is a fragrant heirloom herb treasured in Indian gardens and traditional herbal culture. The plants carry green leaves with a warm clove-like scent, purple-toned stems, and flower spikes that bring bees into the herb patch.
Harvest the leaves and tender tops for teas, drying, and aromatic kitchen use, cutting often to keep plants branching. Tulsi feels different from sweet basil—less like pesto, more like a sacred, spicy garden perfume that rises from the row on warm afternoons.
