Red Rubin Hybrid Purple Sweet Basil Seeds - Garden Vegetable and Herb Seeds
Ocimum basilicum x purpurascens
Listing is for 1 packet of 20 seeds

This is the darkest colored sweet basil that I have ever grown. It is a hybrid variety that holds its color better than other purple basils I have tried. Red Rubin hybrid basil grows fast and produces large, broad, glossy dark purple leaves. Seems to have a pretty high disease resistance too. Flavor is more savory when compared to the standard green sweet basil. I very rarely recommend a hybrid cultivar unless it performs well in my garden, and this one does.

In Florida we have issues with black spots forming on basil leaves usually caused by fungus from high humidity in the air. In my garden I get black spots due to leaf miners. This tends to happen at the end of summer like in September. I recommend the use of garden soap sprays, hydrogen peroxide spray (1 cup of hydrogen peroxide per gallon of water), or just prune the entire plant to encourage new healthy growth. 

Follow me on social media because I talk a lot about the same seed varieties I sell here in my shop and gardening tips. IG, YT, and TikTok: jerrasgarden. 

PLANTING

Ocimum basilicum x purpurascens

Germination: 5-10 days

Seed Sowing Depth: lightly cover with soil, about 1/4 inch

Sowing: Can direct sow or start in seed trays 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Not frost hardy and does not like high heat. If your in Florida, start seeds in September and grow thru fall, winter, and spring. If well taken care of, the plant can survive our crazy hot summers. 

Terms and conditions READ THIS PLEASE:
- Seeds will be shipped with no planting instructions to keep seed costs low to the buyer. Germination and plant care information is included in the description. I encourage each gardener to research specifics on how to be successful growing them. I also have lots of information on my TikTok, Instagram and YouTube channel all under the account name jerrasgarden. I started this shop to share my love of certain seed varieties and spread the knowledge of gardening. Please contact me if you cant find information or have additional questions.

- No returns or refunds once shipped. I am not responsible for lost or damaged packages caused by USPS. Since there are so many factors that affect germination and growing success, no refunds or exchanges are allowed once seeds have shipped. These are the same seeds I use in my personal garden so I can attest to their viability. Seeds are fresh season to season.

- Availability of seed in this shop varies depending on what I have decided to grow that season. With that said, please be advised that seeds are available in limited quantities. Once sold out they may or may not be available again.

Cool as the other side of the pillow
Color: Gray, Size: Queen (U.S. Standard), Set name: Stretchy and Soft
Good quality and keeps cool on side of pillow. Have to flip pillow for constant cooling is the ok only down side. Love the material as it is very soft and silky feel to it. Doesn't wrinkle over pillow and had some good color options. Easy to clean. Fair price for a good product

Love!
Color: Blue, Size: Queen (U.S. Standard), Set name: Stretchy and Soft
Awesome cases! They really are cool to the touch. I didn’t sleep hot at all. I have a “cut-out” memory foam pillow, and this stretched around it perfectly. It is flexible enough that it doesn’t impede with the cut out. And while the material is “silky,” it doesn’t slide around the pillow while sleeping on it. The zipper feature is perfect. I washed and dried per the tag instructions and they washed very well. Super happy.

AMAZING - LOVE THESE!
Color: Blue, Size: Queen (U.S. Standard), Set name: Stretchy and Soft
I've been using these pillow cases for more than 6 months and LOVE them. They are well made, no wrinkling, fraying or wearing out, even with a weekly washing. I love the zippers on them, my pillows fits perfectly in the case and don't constantly escape from the case overnight. They definitely perform as described: they keep me cool at night and don't smell and actually don't make a mess of my hair. I bought an extra one and put it on a pillow I keep close to my body which helps me from overheating during the night. They are a great value for the price, I wish I could get top sheets in the same style as these and I'd be in heaven!

Cool Pillowcases
Color: Gray, Size: Queen (U.S. Standard), Set name: Stretchy and Soft
These pillow cases are silky soft and cool to the touch. They don’t stay as cool as I would like, however, so I find myself moving around on the pillow to find a cool spot or flipping the pillow over. I have washed them several times and the coolness seems to be diminishing. Still, it’s better than a regular cotton pillow case. The zipper is needed and helps keep the material on the pillow.
