Flowers purple from 6 inches to 18 inches, depending on soil fertility. Evergreen, hardy to zone 5. Astringent, analgesic, antiviral. The tea is used for canker sores and cold sores (herpes). Sow seed in early spring or cold-condition in moist medium in the refrigerator (not the freezer) for a week or two before sowing in warm soil. Or just sow in pots in winter to early spring and leave them outside. (protect from downpours that would splash the soil away, and the seeds with it.) They will sprout as the days warm a bit. 30 seeds
