Re: Holy basil

Pam, the holy basil is going gangbusters. Don't quite know what to do
with it. Ms. Fatma says her mother--the consummate Turkish bitch--once
pointed this plant out to her and pronounced it sacred. Since Ms. Fatma
was about 10 at the time, and terrified of her mother, she didn't ask
why, unfortunately. But there you have it. Crushed leaves also smell
different than Greek, African, Thai basils. Wonder how one uses it.
Wonder if one uses it at all or simply worships it :>)

Does it set seed, or hasn't it bolted yet ? Would be interesting to
try.
