Red Rubin Hybrid Purple Sweet Basil Seeds - Garden Vegetable and Herb Seeds
Ocimum basilicum x purpurascens
Listing is for 1 packet of 20 seeds

This is the darkest colored sweet basil that I have ever grown. It is a hybrid variety that holds its color better than other purple basils I have tried. Red Rubin hybrid basil grows fast and produces large, broad, glossy dark purple leaves. Seems to have a pretty high disease resistance too. Flavor is more savory when compared to the standard green sweet basil. I very rarely recommend a hybrid cultivar unless it performs well in my garden, and this one does.

In Florida we have issues with black spots forming on basil leaves usually caused by fungus from high humidity in the air. In my garden I get black spots due to leaf miners. This tends to happen at the end of summer like in September. I recommend the use of garden soap sprays, hydrogen peroxide spray (1 cup of hydrogen peroxide per gallon of water), or just prune the entire plant to encourage new healthy growth. 

Follow me on social media because I talk a lot about the same seed varieties I sell here in my shop and gardening tips. IG, YT, and TikTok: jerrasgarden. 

PLANTING

Ocimum basilicum x purpurascens

Germination: 5-10 days

Seed Sowing Depth: lightly cover with soil, about 1/4 inch

Sowing: Can direct sow or start in seed trays 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Not frost hardy and does not like high heat. If your in Florida, start seeds in September and grow thru fall, winter, and spring. If well taken care of, the plant can survive our crazy hot summers. 

Terms and conditions READ THIS PLEASE:
- Seeds will be shipped with no planting instructions to keep seed costs low to the buyer. Germination and plant care information is included in the description. I encourage each gardener to research specifics on how to be successful growing them. I also have lots of information on my TikTok, Instagram and YouTube channel all under the account name jerrasgarden. I started this shop to share my love of certain seed varieties and spread the knowledge of gardening. Please contact me if you cant find information or have additional questions.

- No returns or refunds once shipped. I am not responsible for lost or damaged packages caused by USPS. Since there are so many factors that affect germination and growing success, no refunds or exchanges are allowed once seeds have shipped. These are the same seeds I use in my personal garden so I can attest to their viability. Seeds are fresh season to season.

- Availability of seed in this shop varies depending on what I have decided to grow that season. With that said, please be advised that seeds are available in limited quantities. Once sold out they may or may not be available again.

Sturdy, Natural Option for Everyday Kitchen Prep
Color: Carbonized Bamboo(Brown), Color: Carbonized Bamboo(Brown)
I was pleasantly surprised by these. They have a clean, natural wood smell and feel pretty durable. On the first couple uses, they were slightly rough and the edges felt a bit sharp, but that improved noticeably after a few washes. Now they feel much smoother. The size variety is a big plus—I’ve been able to use them for multiple purposes like prepping vegetables, fruits, and even meats. Overall, a solid value for the price, especially if you’re trying to replace plastic items with something more natural.
