CHOCOLATE BUBBLEGUM HOLY BASIL (DISCONTINUED)

Ocimum tenuiflorum, holy basil or tulsi, is a tender aromatic perennial native to the Indian subcontinent, where it has been cultivated for millennia as a sacred and medicinal herb. This 'Chocolate Bubblegum' selection is grown for its richly scented foliage — a sweet, spicy fragrance that gives the variety its name — on bushy, upright plants that send up spikes of small lavender flowers loved by bees. Grow it as a warm-season annual for tea, seasoning, or simply for the scent, and pinch it regularly to keep it full.
