AnnualOcimum basilicum. Dark Opal basil is a stunning, ornamental herb known for its deep purple, almost black leaves and fragrant aroma. This variety not only adds a splash of color to gardens but also provides a unique flavor, combining traditional basil sweetness with a hint of spice. Ideal for both culinary and decorative use, Dark Opal basil can be used in salads, pesto, and as a garnish.
Bought multiple times and it always does so well!
It’s growing like a champ. I love my MIgardiner seeds!

Dark Opal Basil grew all through summer into fall in a slightly shaded area. Great taste and color. Definitely will grow again.
It is a beautiful color, has an amazing fragrance, and is not quick to bolt. I've been growing this type since 2022 and my garden is never complete with out it!
They germinated easy and it's delicious
