I love the lemon herbs info ! Thanks, Papito !
I love anything lemon. Lemon verbena is my favorite.
Lemon balm always gets blackened edges for me, dunno why, but it's annoying and not attractive.

Thanks for the info but this was a plant that someone said they keep beside their door so they can smell it when they come inside.

It was Weezie who said that and I'm almost positive she said it was lemon thyme.

Oh sure it can Sheri! I'm thinking about growing some as well. Not only does it smell beautiful, but it adds such flavor to many dishes!!

Yep, Lemon Thyme...to me, it smells when
you rub it or move it...
I can't say it smells just in general...

It is a lovely lemony smell, and reallllly picks me up... *I can just remember it's smell now and it's still invigorating in memory* [Cool] [Cool] [Cool]

I bought mine as a plant, and haven't noticed
it by seed or not...*the plant does spread,
but I thought it was rooting at the nodes..*

There is no lemon thyme in the city of Monroe. Where in the world do you find it?

For when I found some, it was not local either...
I had to go to the Buffalo area to find some..
(it's not a basic gardening plant like a geranium... so it might take a bigger place to find it..)


And I'm not sure about seeds...mine was a already started, 2"pot/container..
