"Mexican Oregano"

Comment: Love these. I let one go to flower and its beautiful. It puts out dainty pink-lavender tubular flowers. It is a magnet for hummers and bees. I had to buy more for culinary use. Tucked these into several pots on deck. 'Very taken with this plant.

Comment: I was worried about getting plants online and would they survive. I got the plants and immediately planted and watered them. They have taken nicely and are beginning to flower.
