Yummy fragrance and healthy plants.
Great quality at a price that can't be beat!
This has become one of my favorite varieties of basil (and I very much enjoy basil!). An excellent germination rate (pretty much 100%), and once established, a very happy plant, indeed. At one point last season (2024), I cut back the basil as it had started to shade out some other plants. I also harvested about half late in the season. Well, cut and come again-there was plenty in the fall to harvest before the frost came. I highly recommend drying and using for herbal tea for the winter with a touch of raw honey. The bees quite enjoyed visiting the flowers once in bloom. :)
I love this basil
The germination rate was amazing. Makes a wonderful tea. Let is go to flower at the end of the season and pollinators love it too.

I grew only a few seeds, but they came up fine, and I was able to get some delicious, sweet melon! I sprayed it once with a copper fungicide, and I should have done it a second time, but I still go melons. (I have a struggle with fungal problems here). Easy to grow, easy to eat!
This stuff feed my garden all summer. Highly recommend
This was one of my first tomatoes from MIgardener seed and I loved it so much. Very tasty green tomato, and even though it was only in a smallish container, it was one of my best producers! Nice clusters (not quite so big and dense as the photo, for me at least...) and great flavor for eating fresh in the garden. I'm not the best with tomatoes, I don't treat them as well as I should, and I grow in Seattle (8b?) which is finicky weather every year, so I was surprised these did so well! Will definitely grow again. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures saved on the vine, but the little green one in the attached photo is one of them!
Love sales. Time to stock up
Pollinators love this flower. Especially honey bees.
They grew in spring then reseeded themselves for fall.
