Type: Annual
Sun / water: Full sun / daily
When I plant it: Late winter, early spring, early summer. It can get heat stressed and drop its leaves.
What I’ve seen
Small purple flowers. This is an annual, but in the right protected conditions it comes back year after year.
How I use it
It will produce “fruit” if the plant is dug up. I have not tried them and will stick to enjoying it as an ornamental.
