PLANTING

Ocimum africanum

Annual

Germination:  5-10 days

Germination Temperature: Optimum soil temperatures 65-70ºF

Seed Planting Depth:  Sow on the surface and lightly cover

Starting Indoors:  Start indoors 4-8 weeks before the last frost. Provide 65-70ºF soil temperatures. Transplant after the last frost, 8-12" apart. 

Sowing Outdoors:  After the last frost, sow a few seeds every 2-4”. Thin to the strongest seedling, 8-12" apart. Sow heavily seeded rows and use the baby greens earlier in the season. Sow again in mid-summer for later harvests.

Growth Habit: Upright, branching

Height and Width: 12-18” x 12-16”  

Spacing:  8-12” apart   

Light Needs: Full sun 

Soil Needs: Holy Basil needs fertile, moist, well-drained soil 

Harvest: Start when the plants are 6-8”, picking leaves as needed. Harvest often to keep the plant producing new leaves. Freeze or dry to preserve 

Uses: Culinary and medicinal, containers, flowers attract pollinators and beneficials

Care: Holy Basil needs fertile soil, amend with compost and/or add organic fertilizer. Basil does not like to dry out, keep well watered for optimum growth, mulching will help retain moisture. 

Tips: Pinch seedlings back to encourage branching and increase leaf production. Pinching off the flowers helps the plant continue producing leaves. We like to pinch off flowers on some plants and leave flowers on others for the pollinators. Flowers are also nice in mixed bouquets. Try growing basil indoors on the windowsill or under grow lights. Growing basil as a micro green is an easy way to enjoy fresh basil during the winter months.

Perfect for Formal Events – Looked Amazing at a Mardi Gras Ball
Size: Medium, Color: Black
My husband wore this 3-piece suit to a Mardi Gras ball and it was absolutely perfect. The fit was true to size, and the vest really elevated the overall look. The material felt high quality for the price—comfortable, breathable, and not stiff at all, even after hours of wearing it. He received multiple compliments throughout the night, and the suit photographed beautifully under ballroom lighting. It arrived well packaged and needed minimal steaming before wearing. Overall, we were very impressed with the style, quality, and value. We would definitely purchase again for future formal events.

Good Quality overall. Pants need work.
Size: 4X-Large, Color: Black
I'm 6'0. 305 lbs and have a beer belly. The 4xl jacket fit like a glove. The vest on the other hand is hard to button and I can't use it. The pants, as expected are a few inches too long and a bit baggy from the knee to the butt and I will have to have them altered. I will say the pants cannot be pulled up too far as the crotch area is very shallow. I wish there were just a bit more room there to pull the pants over my belly. The overall quality is 3.8 out of 5.
