AnnualOcimum basilicum x purpurascens. Red Rubin Basil is a captivating herb with dark, burgundy- purple leaves. It’s an aromatic and flavorful variety, often used in culinary dishes and as an ornamental plant. Its vibrant color and sweet, slightly spicy taste make it a standout choice for gardens and dishes, adding a pop of flavor and visual appeal.
Great germination rate
Planted the seeds, anxiously awaiting for them to sprout!
Red Rubin Basil is a stunning herb with deep purple leaves and a bold, slightly spicy flavor. It’s easy to grow, disease-resistant, and adds both color and taste to dishes like pesto and salads. A great choice for gardeners and cooks alike. Love it and so happy to have it thriving in the garden.
Every seed I planted grew beautifully into a purple basil plant,I’m now in the process of giving away extras!
Cooking spaghetti and meatballs with this gave it a taste out of this world and I shared it with my sister, and her granddaughter is in love with this basil.

We have nice fertile soil in our greenhouse and able to control those pesty little flea beetles that can decimate eggplants foliage. I've been keeping them under control with DE and my eggplants are massive in size, about 3-4 feet tall with 1 foot lower leaves.
The eggplants fruit are developing nicely, nearly doubling in size daily. There are plenty of blossoms too. We're expecting that we won't need to grow more for a few years, we're planning on freeze drying most if them.
I purchased several packs of seeds from MiGardener during the semi annual sale, and they did not disappoint! Nearly 100 percent germination rate on all seeds I've planted. The only thing I haven't been able to germinate is lemon grass, which I'm learning may 1 take a very long time to germinate in general and 2 need bottom heat to help them sprout. Even without being on sale 2 bucks a seed pack for the amount they give (very generous compared to other companies, I might add) is a crazy good deal. If you have been on the fence, I encourage you to give MiGardener seeds a try! Thank you Luke and team, and Happy Gardening to all!
I'm not a seasoned gardener, so I don't necessarily know what's normal or not, but out of all the seeds I planted (got about a dozen different herbs and greens from MIgardener), the fenugreek was the quickest to sprout, had the highest germination rate, and the largest sprouting leaves. I'm pretty excited to watch them grow into beautiful plants.
Gardening for over 40 years. The Trifecta very impressed has all the elements I want in a fertilizer. Next year I will buy the largest amount.
Second squash to produce for me. Picked young and the skin is very thin/easily bruises. Roasted first batch and they were a delicious mild flavor! Very soft but the roasting gave a nice crust on them. 2nd batch mixed in a stir fry and it overcooked very easily and was mushy. I like how prolific this plant is and the mild taste. Just need to make sure not to overcook. Well definitely grow again.
