Ruby

Basil Rubi is a mid-season, high-yielding variety with rich dark purple leaf color, known for its decorative qualities and unique appearance. The plant forms a spreading bush 40 to 70 cm high, with uniform leaves of intense purplish color that retain their shade even after drying. The plant weighs approximately 200-300 g per season, making it attractive for both home growing and industrial plantations.

This basil variety possesses a unique fruity-vanilla and clove-pepper aroma that persists in both fresh and dried forms. The leaves are rich in essential oils, carotene, and vitamin C, which give the greens not only a rich taste but also beneficial properties. Thanks to their aromatic qualities, Rubi basil is widely used in cuisine as a spicy condiment, a natural flavoring for salads, prepared dishes, and pickling. It is also suitable for freezing, which allows preserving its aroma and taste for a long time.

Growing Rubi basil is possible on open sunny areas with regular watering and fertilization, as well as in protected ground or indoor conditions year-round. To achieve the best results, it is recommended to grow it via seedlings, which ensures more reliable plant development. The variety is characterized by rapid growth and stable leaf coloration, making it popular among gardeners and professional agrarians.
