My seeds were bought from China with well package. The package insert states that it will turn to purple if the weather is cold. Otherwise, it will remain green. Besides, it could partially change to purple if the wheather is not cold enough. Anyway, I am still waiting for its purple colour. There may have different breeds and there are so many kind of basils. Since the photo in the package is not the same, I am sure mine is not the same as yours. Thank you for your sharing, your purple leaves are lovely. : ) |
