This is a lovely plant which you can use to give herbal interest to your border or colour interest to your herb garden! With erect stems, it bears ornamental, crinkly, purplish-red leaves reminiscent of a Coleus. These have a strong aroma and flavour of cinnamon and are popular in Japan for flavouring raw fish, tempura and pickles and also to give a scarlet colour to pickled plums. 1-3 ft.
