All-American winner for 1997. Major improvement on the standard variety. A very regal looking plant! Has dense deep purple inflorescences contrasting with the dark green leaves. Spicy anise-licorice aroma and flavour; excellent served fresh in such dishes as Thai green curries and Vietnamese noodle soups.
