RE: My herb garden - Macro Photography

in Photography Loverslast month

You’re doing well with your garden project. Among the herbs that you planted, the one that I’m most familiar with the taste us Basil, but I didn’t know that there’s a purple type, is there any difference with the usual green ones like French basil?

Thank you, oh nice.. We like the basil a lot too. Yep they indeed do have a purple variety.

Not sure the flavor is any different, but I would hope they have additional nutritional values to them. Purple plants tend to have extra goodies inside.

I believe so too, I learned from a quick Google search that purple vegetables & fruits contain anthocyanins; it is said to help protect cells from damage. Sounds good to me :)
