Basil ‘Purple Ruffles’ – For Salads, Herb Oils and Colour

Basil ‘Purple Ruffles’ (Ocimum basilicum) is a striking dark purple basil variety with decorative, serrated leaves that bring colour to herb gardens, pots, balconies and greenhouses. This variety is a good choice when you are looking for something more unusual for home growing.

‘Purple Ruffles’ has an aromatic and slightly spicy flavour. The leaves are suitable for salads, pesto, herb oils, finishing dishes and fresh use as a culinary herb. The dark purple foliage also makes this variety a beautiful ornamental herb.

Sow the seeds indoors all year round or from March to July when the growing temperature is above 20 °C. Basil needs warmth, light and even moisture to grow well. Regular pinching helps the plant branch out and produce more leaves.
