This short lived perennial is another easy to grow member of the mint family. Will grow in partial to full sun, I'd suggest at least 4 hours of direct light. Will grow to 4 ft in height, Instead of being aromatic like most of their kin, this one went bitter. Harvest aerial parts for cramps, the heart and a hyper thyroid.
