Stevia is a tender perennial herb known for its naturally sweet leaves and compact, shrubby growth. Stevia rebaudiana is commonly grown in herb gardens and containers for culinary use.

This plant develops upright foliage with small white flowers appearing in mid to late season. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, and can be grown outdoors in warm climates or maintained in containers for seasonal growing in cooler regions.

Each plant is supplied as a well-rooted starter ready to be transplanted into a final container. For outdoor planting, it may be established further in a 3–4" pot before transferring to the landscape. Plant size and fullness may vary naturally, and listing photos may not represent the exact plant received.

Live plants may experience normal shipping stress such as leaf loss, yellowing, wilting, or minor branch damage.

Please consider local weather before purchasing. Extreme heat, freezing temperatures, severe weather, shipping delays, or unattended packages may increase plant stress.
