Very large, dark, shiny purple leaves that are ruffled and fringed on Purple Ruffles Basil. What a beauty that is both a distinctive ornamental and a delectable herb.
Not only is Purple Ruffles Basil great used as a culinary herb but it is also great used in containers or garden beds as an ornamental. The flavor is good and adds life to garnishes.
