Perilla Magilla

About this product

Perilla Magilla delivers bold, coleus-like foliage in rich burgundy and rose tones edged with green, offering season-long color without the fuss of flowers. Heat- and sun-tolerant, it holds its striking leaf color through summer's peak, making it a reliable filler or thriller in mixed plantings. A sterile, well-branched performer that keeps its shape with minimal maintenance.
