In bengali we call basil plant as tulsi. I have tulsi plant in pots in balcony. The leaves are useful if eaten with honey which can reduce cold and cough. Also there are other medicinal properties of basil. It is offered in Vishnu puja.

I have three basil plants. One in my garden and two on my terrace. We Indians water the tulsi after a bath and offer prayers to it.

I always grow a basil plant or two every year. I enjoy using fresh spices when possible.

i was between tulsi vitamins and turmeric tea but opted for turmeric cause, it was cheaper.

thanks Valentine if you plant the tulsi in a pot at home you can pluck the leaves and eat them

I never had a basil plant but I do like dried basil added to different recipes.
