I live and grow in zone four in Wisconsin… Our summers are very short and so often I use a greenhouse and I start my transplants in March to extend the growing season… I’ve tried this one many years and this is the first year it has flowered! It’s been a hot summer, so I’m guessing that is why. Currently in flower it is well over my head 🙂

Last year I bought quite a few members of the mint family. I believe that I had 100% germination with the Cordao. Living in northern Nevada, trying new products is sketchy. The plants grew about 4′ – 5′ tall, and held up to the wind. The seed heads are fascinating. I highly recommend this plant.
