Purple Basil

Purple Basil is an enchanting and visually striking herb cherished for its deep purple leaves and a flavor profile similar to its green counterpart. This warm-season herb produces vibrant, purple-hued leaves that are commonly used fresh in salads, as a garnish, or to add a pop of color to a variety of dishes. Purple Basil is perfect for creating visually appealing culinary presentations and is often used in creative and artistic ways by chefs and home cooks alike. Like Green Basil, it can be used in many recipes to add a sweet and aromatic touch. With its stunning appearance and delightful taste, Purple Basil is a treasured and prized addition to any herb garden, offering a unique twist to traditional basil varieties.
