An aromatic annual herb with ovate, bright green leaves that grow oppositely along square stems. It produces small white or purple flowers in spiked clusters at the top of the plant.

Care Instructions

Requires full sun (at least 6 hours daily) and well-draining soil. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, avoiding wetting the foliage. To encourage bushier growth and prolong leaf production, pinch off flower spikes as they appear.
