| I have one that was sold to me as as Purple Perilla or Shosi. You should check locally to be sure before eating. I use fresh small leaves raw in salad and other larger leaves made into a paste for sauce on asian food. Lovely flavor. |

| Sorry I meant Shiso. I bought seeds for the same plant later. |
