Tulsi (Ocimum tenuiflorum), or Holy Basil is a highly-valued plant, sacred to Hindus and practitioners of Ayurveda, the ancient Indian medicine tradition. Ayurveda considers Tulsi to promote longevity, overall health and peace of mind and body.

Press seeds into the surface of good-quality potting soil, and keep moist throughout the germination period. Seeds can be sown indoors in late winter to get a jump on spring. When the soil has warmed in spring, plant tulsi seedlings in a space with plenty of sun. Tulsi is not too picky about soil, but does appreciate a bit of fertility and moderate water. Harvest tulsi leaves at any time once established and growing with vigor and health. Plants grow up to two feet tall and are typically grown as annuals in most temperate climates, but the perennial nature of the plant means it can overwinter in warmer winter climates (Zone 10) We’ve maintained our own seed line for a better part of the last decade, and this has resulted in improved germination rates of the plant versus wildcrafted seed.
