Tulsi, also known as Holy Basil, is a fragrant, medicinal herb treasured for its calming and adaptogenic properties. A staple in Ayurvedic traditions, Tulsi makes a delicious herbal tea and is packed with wellness benefits. Its small purple-tinged flowers also attract pollinators, making it a great addition to any garden.



Why Grow Tulsi?

Aromatic & Flavorful: Tulsi has a distinct clove-like scent with hints of spice and sweetness. It’s perfect for fresh or dried herbal teas, infusions, and culinary uses.

Health Benefits: Known for its adaptogenic properties, Tulsi is used to support stress relief, immune function, and respiratory health. A cup of Tulsi tea can be a great addition to your daily wellness routine.

Pollinator-Friendly: Bees and butterflies love Tulsi’s delicate flowers, making it a great choice for a pollinator-friendly garden.



Planting and Growing Information

Growing Zones: Suitable for USDA Zones 4-11. Tulsi thrives in warm, sunny climates but can also be grown in containers and brought indoors for year-round harvesting.
When to Plant: Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost, or sow directly outdoors once temperatures stay above 50°F.
Sunlight Requirements: Tulsi loves full sun and should receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
Soil: Prefers well-draining, nutrient-rich soil. Regular watering is beneficial, but avoid waterlogging.
Spacing: Space plants 12-18 inches apart to allow for full growth and airflow.


Perfect for Any Garden

Tulsi is a must-have for herbal tea lovers, home apothecaries, and anyone looking to grow a fragrant, medicinal herb with deep cultural roots. Whether grown in the garden, a raised bed, or a container on your porch, Tulsi will reward you with fresh leaves for tea and a beautiful, pollinator-friendly presence.
