Egyptian Basil Seeds

Egyptian Basil, also known as Ocimum basilicum var. thyrsiflora, is a flavorful and aromatic herb that is easy to grow. Here's how to sow and care for Egyptian Basil seeds: Timing and Location: Egyptian Basil seeds can be sown directly outdoors after the last frost date in your area. Choose a location with full sun and well-drained soil. Soil Preparation: Prepare the soil by loosening it to a depth of about 6-8 inches (15-20 cm) and incorporating organic matter like compost to improve fertility and drainage. Sowing: Sow the Egyptian Basil seeds directly into the prepared soil, planting them about ¼ inch deep. Space the seeds 6-8 inches (15-20 cm) apart in rows that are 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart.
