Hi,
I've been missing this plant, it's so fun and carefree to grow! Although, I lost it in our drought of 2011, so I guess although it's an easy care plant, it must have needed some water and attention!
But isn't that how it goes? Start bragging on a plant and it doesn't come back!
I believe it's typically the leaves that are harvested and used thru the growing cycle. I thought it to be very potent as it will numb your mouth immediately.
