ocimum tenuiflorum (synonym ocimum sanctum), commonly known as holy basil or tulsi, is an aromatic perennial plant in the family lamiaceae. It is native to the indian subcontinent and widespread as a cultivated plant throughout the southeast asian tropics.[2][3]
tulsi is cultivated for religious and traditional medicine purposes, and for its essential oil. It is widely used as a herbal tea, commonly used in ayurveda, and has a place within the vaishnava tradition of hinduism, in which devotees perform worship involving holy basil plants or leaves.
