The listing, 20 seeds leonotis nepetifolia has ended.
Lion's Tail is very easy to grow. It's an evergreen perennial if protected from frost (zones 9-10). In colder areas, you can grow it in a pot and bring it indoors over the winter. Or just grow it as an annual each spring, saving the seed in the Fall. It prefers full sun to a half-day of sun. It's drought-tolerant once established, although it looks best with occasional watering and feeding. It can bloom throughout the year in mild-winter areas.
In Africa, where this Mint relative originates, the flowers are smoked for a mild euphoric effect. Personally, i use it as an intriguing dried flower for arrangements! This is a fascinating and fun plant that everyone should grow.
