Tulsi Basil
Medicinal use of Tulsi leaves is far-reaching and includes fever, cough, stress, headaches, skin disorders… The smell is pungent, spicy, and minty, with a slight hint of sweet basil and cloves. Tulsi is a favorite forage plant for bees, and we absolutely love watching it grow and flower profusely. Like any herb you’d like to see grow bigger and bushier, pinch off flower buds as they appear. It is a lovely and fragrant addition to any flower bouquet as well!

(Ocimum sanctum aka O. tenuiflorum) Considered India’s “Queen of Herbs” and cultivated for over 5,000 years for both religious and medicinal purposes. It is used in Aryuvedic medicine for its classification as an adaptogenic herb (tonic herb) that supports one's natural immune system while simultaneously relieving stress and bringing balance. An important herb in the Hindu religion, Tulsi is considered a goddess in plant form and is often found growing in a prominent location in gardens or homes in India. Interestingly, as Tulsi traveled westward into Europe and found its way into the Christian religions, it became known as the “King of Herbs” and eventually sacred or holy basil, hence its Latin name.
