aka beefsteak, shiso.

Planted on south-facing balcony; one in earthbox, one not.

2014-06-06: The plants were really done about a month ago. They weren't really successful (they might have been root-bound), but we did get enough for garnish.

2014-07-05: Lots of volunteer shiso sprouting!

2015-01-30: So many shiso sprouts!

So much shiso….
