I grew one last summer from HD. It struggled through our heat but survived and I think it's doing okay now, last I checked. Reminded me of a salvia.
I use stevia leaf from my herb store, just cut and sifted. I also buy extract, for things like yogurt, where I wouldn't want the leaf. But the leaf is great for my tea, just dried, in my strainer. Very sweet! Hoping my little plant will grow enough to bother dehydrating next summer.
