Basil Seeds | Non-GMO | Herb Seeds
In general, basil is an ultimate hybrid with many different varieties. Basil is also ancient, which makes it a challenge for gardeners to pin down a single origin. This herb can be classified as either sweet or non-sweet.
The popular types are considered sweet. For example, a cultivar that isn't sweet would be clove basil. Although Red Rubin Basil Herbs produce more of a spicy and zesty flavor, this type of red basil is considered sweet.
