Seed Needs, Culinary Basil Herb Seed Packet Collection (8 Individual Basil Seed Varieties for Planting) Non-GMO & Untreated...

All of the seeds I planted from this have turned into healthy and hardy plants. The basil taste exactly as it should and the lemon basil is honestly amazing. I got the pack just for that and it was well worth it. Plus I have seeds left over to plant next year.

Nice variety of basil and great germination success rate

I can't really assess all the qualities of the potential future mature plants, as I have only had this set of seeds for less than a month, but then again, with gardening there are so many factors that influence the final product. It's fair to judge seeds as good if they germinate and arrive well packaged and undamaged. I have put little areas of the various basil varieties in a few planters. They seem to all germinate well (but do expect that because these are different strains of basil some will grow faster than others). The seedlings look good. The seeds appear to be basil seeds (I usually grow a lot of basil and these look like they should). They are really well packaged too! The seed collection came wrapped in a sealed envelope. Each variety of seed is in its own designated sleeve--colorfully printed, the same paper sleeve as the usual seeds you can buy at any retailers, but with one notable difference: the top flap is gummed and resealable! The gummed sleeve is very convenient and makes these seeds easy to reseal if you don't sow them all at once. Lastly, these are a good value for the price. If you bought a single mature plant of any of the varieties here, you might pay on average $6 per plant where I live. So, while I do buy some larger basil plants from a greenhouse, I also like to grow my own from seed. It is truly a very very versatile plant. I would recommend this brand and seller. I will probably buy more of their seeds next year after having a good experience with this set of seeds.
