Lemon Verbena. Picked up this healthy little herb yesterday. More than surprised to find it grows into a 2 mt (6'6") shrub, a bit big to grow in with the parsley and oregano. Have to find a bigger space. Lemon scented, deters flys and mosquitoes; dried leaves in sleep pillows for sweet dreams. Use leaves in tea, cakes, shortbread, muffins, rice. I will make great use of this very useful herb. #herb #gyo #verbena-lemon
