Yes, mine is beginning to flower now. I wonder if it will come true from seed.
I know the more common perilla which is ordinary does come true from seed, but
this ornamental version, not so sure.

Sure Perilla resembles Plectranthus (Coleus) in several ways, particularly
the arrangement of the stamens. The two genera are actually in the same
tribe within the family.

Oh hush up big mouth! I figured it was the plant this person was talking

about
because of its variegation and how it does resemble coleus in that way.

The plant you are thinking of probably of the rolled version.

Does anybody knows if the name "Coleus of Labiate family" is another
name for the Perilla plant?.
