FS-PS, Rich, moist soil, 18-24". Pinch tip from center shoot after 6 weeks to encourage bushy growth and pinch off blooms to keep from going to seed. Very dark purple leaves.

2021: Only got 1 of these from seed this year. Did fine.
2020: From seed - ended up with 2 plants, they did well in herb garden.
