50+ Thai Basil ‘Typ Thai’ Seeds - Superior Culinary Variety Dense Flowers Leaves

Description: Thai Basil ‘Typ Thai’ (Ocimum basilicum var. thyrsiflora) An easy-to-grow culinary herb with bright green leaves, dark purple stems, and tiny, pale purple flowers. ‘Typ Thai’ is a cultivar that’s been bred to have more abundant leaves and blooms on clean, sturdy deep purple stems. This herbaceous perennial is native to Southeast Asia. Its edible leaves are traditionally used in Southeast Asian cuisines and offer a spicy, licorice-like flavor and aroma. In the United States, Thai basil plants are hardy in zones 10-11 but are typically grown as annuals. Like sweet basil, Thai basil plants are easy to grow. Start seeds indoors about six weeks before your last frost date in the spring. Plant Thai basil seedlings outdoors in late spring when soil temperatures are around 70 degrees and night temperatures are consistently above 50 degrees. Seed Thai basil about a quarter-inch deep in a spot with moist, well-drained soil and full to part sun. Plant or thin Thai basil seedlings to put about 12 inches between plants. You can also plant Thai basil seeds or seedlings in containers. Thai basil plants bloom in mid-to-late summer, depending on your region. Pinch back the tiny purple flowers to keep the plant from setting seed and encourage leaf growth.
