Ornamental and useful is this reddish-purple (the hotter the summer, the deeper the purple) tinted plant that exudes a delicious, sweet, clove-like aroma. Highly regarded in India both for its medicinal properties (anything from sinus problems to fungal skin infections) and culinary uses. (Fresh in salads or cooked like cabbage or as a flavour). 3 ft. Seed scarce.
