Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.
I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.
Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.

Thai Basil is a fragrant herb belonging to the mint family, known for its distinctive aroma and flavour. It's widely used in cooking, herbal drinks, and home remedies. The plant has soft green leaves that add a wonderful flavour to many dishes, making it a perfect kitchen herb. Thai Basil grows well in warm Indian weather and can be easily grown in pots, balconies, windowsills, and terraces. Having this plant at home gives you a fresh and chemical-free supply of leaves whenever you need them for cooking.
Thai Basil grows best with 4-6 hours of sunlight daily for healthy leaves and strong flavour. Place the plant in sunny windows, balconies, kitchen counters, or terraces where it receives good sunlight and airflow. If you're growing it indoors, ensure it gets enough light by placing it near a south or west-facing window. In the hot Indian summers, provide some afternoon shade to prevent the leaves from scorching.
Water the plant regularly to keep the soil slightly moist. Avoid overwatering and make sure the pot drains excess water properly. Thai Basil prefers well-draining soil, so ensure the pot has drainage holes. The plant thrives in moderate humidity, so misting the leaves occasionally can help, especially in dry climates. Water in the morning to allow the leaves to dry during the day, preventing fungal diseases.
