Magilla

Magilla Perilla is commonly referred to as Magilla. Magilla produces a vibrant foliage of red, bronze and green on its strong stems. Its colors will come to life through early Spring, Summer and Fall, right up until the first frost. Magilla is desired most for its vivid foliage, fast, vigorous growth, heat tolerance, and mounding growth habit for landscape, beds, baskets and containers. This is a great annual for early Spring and Fall with vibrant colors to brighten up any container or landscape. 

Height 24-36 Inches

Spread 12-18 Inches

Homeowner Growing & Maintenance Tips The Magilla Perilla prefers full sun but can tolerate some shade. Magilla grows best in average, well drained soil. Please remember, plants may need a little extra TLC and more consistent watering when in a container or basket!
