Ratings & Reviews

bees love it

This plant had so many bees around it, you could hear them from across the yard. PLant looks pretty good too.
customer review from 4/06/2014 23 March 2016

Easy to grow, pretty flowers.

Is easy to grow and has pretty, interesting flowers. Grows tall but falls over, mine are lying along the ground amongst other plants. Foliage doesn't seem to have a lemon fragrance.
