Days to Maturity: 60 from direct sow

A stunningly beautiful basil disguised as a Celosia, Cardinal wows you with big spiky blooms of cerise-red atop bright burgundy stems. Fragrant, well-branched, and every bit as delicious as plain old basils, Cardinal is the ultimate edible ornamental, offering something for everyone in the sunny garden.

The leaves on this plant are bright green and very tasty, ready to start harvesting just 60 days after sowing (or even sooner for smaller, more tender leaves). Richly aromatic, they are perfect for pesto and sandwiches, salads and Mediterranean cuisine.

But unlike most others, Cardinal has spectacular blooms. Very tightly packed in pointed peaks, they begin in late spring from an early planting, and continue all the way into early fall. Magnificent.

And the blooms aren't the only attraction of this beauty. The flowering stems are a rich shade of burgundy as well, standing out brilliantly from the green leaves. Sturdy and strong, they hold their bounty of blooms very nicely.

Cardinal reaches about 24 to 30 inches high in the sunny garden, and spreads 12 to 18 inches wide. It is irresistible to butterflies, bees, and birds, and makes a great container subject. Plant it around the perimeter of your vegetable patch to keep destructive pests at bay—it will be the most beautiful repellent you've ever used. And mix it right in with annual flowering plants, particularly those lacking a strong scent. Cardinal is happy to share its rich, spicy aroma.

These seeds can be direct sown in spring after all danger of frost, when night temperatures consistently stay above 50 degrees Fahrenheit and the soil feels warm to the touch. Cover them with a scant ¼-inch of soil, and keep the soil moist until they have sprouted, which usually takes about 5 to 10 days. Alternatively, start them indoors in late winter, 6 to 8 weeks before last scheduled frost, in your Bio-Dome, and transplant them after nights are warm and the seedlings have at least 2 sets of true leaves.

One the plants are about 6 weeks old, pinch out the central growing stem. This will encourage the side shoots to leaf out, and keep the plant from blooming too quickly. Even if you are growing Cardinal as an ornamental, you'll want a bushier, more full plant. And if you grow it for culinary use, you want to keep pinching off those flower buds as soon as you see them, because once this basil blooms, it is no longer as tasty. (Our recommendation is to grow some of both: ornamental and culinary.)

Like all basil, Cardinal appreciates full sunshine and moist, well-drained, enriched soil. This is not a "lean" herb; give it rich soil and it will repay you generously in yields and beauty.

Silky smooth fabric
This is a cool and comfortable polo shirt. It's made primarily of polyester with spandex as well to give it added stretch. It fits as expected in my regular size. The color and pattern appear like they did online. It falls somewhere in between casual and dressy and should be suitable for most settings. The fabric is smooth with a bit of sheen and feels cool to the touch. I've machine washed and dried it several times and it still looks great. I love that it doesn't wrinkle and I never need to iron it. Everything seems well put together and I think the quality is great.

This is THE BEST Polo-Style Shirt I Have EVER Seen!!
Color: Light Blue, Size: X-Large, Color: Light Blue, Size: X-Large
OH MAH GAWD this shirt is SO soft that I would call it slippery!! It fits PERFECTLY and true-to-size. The material is a lightweight 'satin' type feel to it that I have NEVER felt before!! Hubby just LOVES this shirt!! The color & print is just GORGEOUS with the subtle sleeve contrast at the 'cuff' (see pics)!! It is great quality with a style that will NEVER look "dated", since it is "Polo Reimagined" with the use of the slick-soft material! Given all of THAT... this is a GREAT value at this price!!
