This beautiful variety features deep purple, serrated leaves with a unique flavor often described as a blend of basil, mint, and anise. Purple shiso is commonly used to wrap sushi, enhance rice dishes, brew teas, or naturally dye and garnish foods with its rich color. Easy to grow and highly productive, shiso thrives in warm weather and full to partial sun, and can be grown in garden beds or containers. For best results, sow seeds on the surface of moist soil (they need light to germinate), keep consistently moist, and expect sprouts in 7–21 days. A must-have for gardeners looking to grow something beautiful, versatile, and packed with cultural history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePLANTING\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGermination: 7-21 days\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSowing: Cold stratification helps achieve better germination.
