Notes

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….

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
