edit About Thai Basil
Sometimes called "holy basil" as it is often planted around temples, Thai basil is stronger in flavor than other varieties and is used extensively in Thai cooking. The leaves are smaller than sweet basil and the younger leaves and stems have a purple tint. Excellent in curries and stir-fries.
