Buying basil

Where is the cheapest place to buy basil?

Today the lowest price you can actually order is $2.69 at Botanical Interests, out of 8 nurseries we check every morning. That figure skips sold-out sizes, so it is a price you can put in a basket rather than the lowest number printed on a page.

How much does basil cost?

Across the nurseries we track, basil runs $2.69 to $17.95 depending on size and how it ships. 26 listings carry a price right now. Bare-root and smaller grades sit at the bottom of that range; potted, larger or grafted stock at the top.

When is the best time to buy basil?

Late winter and early spring, when nurseries list their new season's stock. That is when the widest range of sizes is available and when bare-root grades — the cheapest way to buy most plants — are offered. Stock thins as the season goes on and what is left is the larger, dearer sizes.

Do you track basil price history?

Yes. We record every tracked nursery's price for basil every morning and chart it once there is enough of a record to mean anything. Until then the table on this page is today's prices, checked this morning.

Do you sell basil?

No. Story Thyme Farms sells botanical prints, not plants. Every price here belongs to a third-party nursery, and we may earn a commission if you buy through a link — which never changes what we list or how it is ranked.
