Perilla 'Hojiso', also known as 'Britton' or 'Briton' in some regions, stands out with its distinctive bi-colored leaves, presenting a vibrant display of green on top with deep purple-red undertones. This cultivar is a less typical form of Perilla, valued both for its ornamental beauty and culinary utility, particularly in Japanese and broader Asian cuisines. The serrated, red-veined leaves not only contribute to the visual appeal of dishes as garnishes but also offer a complex flavor profile that is difficult to pinpoint, often described as a blend of cinnamon, basil, anise, and citrus​.
