One of the many plants I always wanted to grow is Tulasi and this year I started growing holy basil or tulasi from seed. I am glad I have few extras to give away to friends. Tulasi is a sacred plant and worshiped by Hindus. It is used in Ayurveda for its medicinal properties. Its extract can cure common cold, stomach ache, etc. It is believed by Hindus that giving tulasi water for a person on death bed can raise their departing soul to heaven.
