Seedling (2022.07.19)

@Italian food lovers, especially women, know basil (also known as the king of herbs), which is indispensable in pasta and pizza. By the way, perilla, which is indispensable in Japanese cuisine, and basil, which is used in Italian cuisine, both originated in the foothills of the Himalayas.

And interestingly, both basil and perilla have green leaf and red leaf varieties. Red basil is equivalent to red perilla. Perhaps ordinary women do not have that much knowledge, so if they know how to use it, they will be motivated to buy it.

Red basil is an annual, so seeds can be sown every year. I sow a few seeds in a plastic pot, thin them out to three stocks, and plant them where they grow to grow two large and small stocks close to each other.

The reason why I do this is that when I was living in the mountains in Shimonita, Gunma Prefecture, the people in the mountains picked egoma, a herb that is also a member of the labiatae family and looks just like green perilla.

 Egoma was important because it contains the essential ingredients of blue fish (sardines, saury, etc.) that are difficult for people in mountainous areas to consume. and planted together in pairs.” Thinking about it, it is advantageous to get more seeds in mountainous areas where seeds are used instead of sesame seeds. In that sense, I apply that method to red basil as well.

The seed this time is not a one-generation seed called "F1", but a fixed seed, and as long as you get the seed, you can grow it in the same way every year. As an herb, it can withstand unexpectedly high temperatures and humidity, and will not wither unless it is too dried. (Cutting is also possible)

Deep autumn red basil (2022.10.27)

@ It can be used in the same way as regular basil, but the best way to use it is to use vinegar that has both red color and scent. (However, the color does not transfer to the oil.)

Spaghetti topped with red basil flowers (2022.08.17)

Coltivazione del Coleus (Coleus blumei)

Il Coleus è originario dell’isola di Giava. è una pianta molto decorativa e appariscente per le eleganti foglie rossicce chiazzate, marginate o venate di verde, di giallo o di rosa. Tra tutte le annuali da fogliame è certamente la più conosciuta e apprezzata anche perchè è di rapida crescita e di facile coltivazione; i fiori di colore lillacino sono assai piccoli e ben poco appariscenti.
