So ready to sow!

This would be the first time growing this variety. Im sure it will be great like all the other MIGardner seeds I have gotten!

To basil, or not to basil, that is the question

These are definitely 'To Basil'. It's the first purple variety I've managed to grow easily.

I grew them in pots, I grew them in the ground. I brought some cuttings inside over this winter, and they're doing splendidly on a windowsill. Very decorative and taste great.

Dark Opal Basil grew all through summer into fall in a slightly shaded area. Great taste and color. Definitely will grow again.
