Re: Holy basil


The bees at my house certainly think it is sacred- they love it!

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 :>)
