Tulsi Basil 'Krishna' Seeds
Tulsi Basil is one of the most culturally important herbs for medicinal and spiritual uses in South Asia. This red leaf variety ‘Krishna’ has high levels of rosmarinic acid and eugenol, which lends to its clove-like scent. Regular consumption of tulsi not only helps protect and detoxify the body's cells and organs, it can also help reduce toxic stress by relaxing and calming the mind and offering many other psychological benefits.
Plants grow to a height of 20” at maturity with small, reddish purple leaves. Leaves can be used fresh or dried for tea. This variety is the most medicinal and spiritual of any other variety.
Numerous studies also show that tulsi has anti-diabetic, anti-bacterial, anti-carcinogenic, anti-fertility, anti-ulcer and many other activities. The compounds present in this herb help the body and mind cope with a wide range of chemical, physical, infectious and emotional stresses and restore physiological and psychological function.
Our seeds came directly from India and we have been stewarding them here on our land for the last two years. Tropical Indian tulsis are classified as Ocimum tenuiflorum. Other seed companies are offering a variety incorrectly named Tulsi ‘Kapoor’, which is actually classified as Ocimum Africanum, a type of African basil. The scent and growth habit between the two are very different.
At least 500 seeds per Packet.
