Attention Gardeners: Has anyone ever tried to grow a patchouli plant?

I didn't find a lot of confusing advice, but there are a lot of confusing web sites. I think you could do fine with a reputable gardening site's advice - just avoid all those non-gardening sites from folks who like the smell. It seems to be a tropical plant that likes some shade but isn't too fussy on that score.It does need lots of moisture and will die if it gets cold.

It is for zone 9, 10, or 11. In zone 7 you have to keep it in a pot indoors except during warm summer months.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
