I found this distinctively colored plant in our yard. It has the four-sided stem, opposite leaves, and just the "look" of something in the mint family. Leaf undersides are burgundy/purple and the tops of the leaves are a deep green. Younger foliage has more of a purple tone on the upper side as well. The odor when crushed is mild to nonexistent. Is this a weed, a native, or just a random plant from some scattered seed?

Got a suggestion on DG that this might be some sort of Plectranthus, but looking for more specifics...

THANKS IN ADVANCE!

It's an annual called strobelanthes. Being in GA myself, I have used these in pots for texture and hight and they do bloom a lovely purple spike all over in late summer! Over-winter it inside.
