Ocimum basilicum. Siam Queen basil is a vibrant Thai basil variety known for its unique, spicy-sweet flavor with an anise and licorice aroma. This herb features deep green leaves and striking purple stems and flowers, making it both a culinary and ornamental delight. The sturdy leaves maintain their shape and taste better than any other variety when cooked at high or extended cooking temperatures. Ideal for Asian cuisine, particularly Thai dishes, it enhances the flavors of curries, soups, and stir-fries.
Can't wait to plant it next spring!
Definitely a great basil to grow in the garden — great for pollinators and for beneficial companion planting! Plus, I’ve become fond of clipping sprigs of Siam Queen Basil for my tiny flower vases - really great for filler & even by themselves.
I grow Siam Queen Thai Basil in my flower beds every year. They are a gorgeous deep plum purple flower and the plant naturally grows to look just like an arranged bouquet. My Thai friend prefers this basil for her Thai Salad Wraps and my Mother and I like to cut the leaves and make a fresh cup of tea with them. Siam Queen is an excellent pollinator for the veggie garden too.
I grow a many varieties of Basil and this is one of the most beautiful! I grow so much that I can use it in my flower arrangements, and it makes the house smell so good!
Plant it as soon as I could, it's growing. Would recommend from this company. They rushed my order to me when I requested it because I was going to be out of town and I just wanted to make sure I have it before I left. So thank you again for that.

Great germination and very prolific.
I grew this in a straw bale garden in 2025 and really enjoyed it. It grew amazingly well and was beautiful, so I purchased more for 2026. Michigan zone 6b.
I have grown these for the last few years and they are hands down my favorite. I like romas and firm tomatoes. These remind me of mini romas. These are less prone to splitting, super easy to harvest and has a super great flavor and very meaty. YUM!
The cloves are large, full and heavy. Of the two cloves I kept (shared 2 with my daughter), 12 were large enough to plant, 1 will be consumed.
Received 9 or 10 large, nice quality cloves of elephant garlic. Packaged nicely. Planted them right up and looking forward to seeing what sprouts next season.
