Know before you buy
Yes, the Purple Dark Opal Basil seeds are certified organic, non-GMO, open-pollinated, and heirloom varieties, ensuring they are sustainably sourced and free from synthetic modifications.
Each envelope contains 15 seeds. Since this is an annual herb, you can expect up to 15 plants if all seeds germinate successfully.
This variety is fully edible and highly versatile. It is excellent for culinary uses like salads, vinegars, and pesto, and can also be brewed into a therapeutic tea to help soothe stomach ailments.
The branding reflects a thematic focus on mindfulness and inner peace. While the product is a high-quality heirloom herb seed, the packaging and concept are designed to encourage a calming, meditative gardening experience.
As an annual herb, it thrives in warm, sunny conditions with well-draining soil. Like most basil varieties, it requires regular watering and protection from frost to reach its full potential.
