The same goes for the buds it produces, which are shaped like popcorns but with striking purple streaks against a rich, deep green hue.
It is important to thin out the plant. While it is generally sturdy, its thick foliage can sometimes harbor moisture in its crevices that develop into mold or mildew. In worst scenarios, it can stunt the herb’s growth as it rots the affected areas. However, pruning it can help circulate air and light properly especially around the lower nodes.
