It seems to be "La albahaca", not "El Albahaca"

I've seen it both ways. I thought this rule would apply:
"Feminine words beginning with stressed a or ha take el in the singular and las in the plural: el alma ‘the soul’ / las almas ‘the souls’, el hacha ‘the hatchet’ / las hachas ‘the hatchets’. In spite of this, these nouns remain feminine in the singular, as shown by adjective agreement: el alma bendita ‘the blessed soul’."

But, I'm not sure if the "a" in albahaca is stressed, or not
I've changed the post to la albahaca. Thanks.
