Deep Purple Certified Organic Basil

About Deep Purple Basil

This certified organic Deep Purple Basil is a flavorful, eye-catching plant with rich purple leaves and classic sweet basil taste. Its upright growth makes harvesting easy, while the bold foliage adds contrast to herb gardens, containers, and edible landscapes.

In the kitchen, Deep Purple Basil can be used just like green basil — fresh in salads, pesto, sauces, and infused oils, with the added bonus of striking color for garnishes and plating. It’s a great choice for gardeners who want organic herbs that are both productive and decorative.

This open-pollinated basil is easy to grow in garden beds, raised beds, and pots, and performs reliably throughout the season.

Plant Deep Purple Basil in full sun and well-drained soil after the danger of frost has passed. Regular harvesting encourages fresh growth and keeps plants productive.

This variety offers intermediate resistance to Downy Mildew and Fusarium Wilt, helping support healthy organic basil plants through the growing season. A simple, rewarding herb that brings flavor, color, and versatility to the home garden.
