Thank you - that would certainly explain why it smells and tastes of nothing! I really like it and have since placed a mulch of stones around the soil which makes it look more decorative. Looks like I will need to keep it well watered - shouldn't be a problem about 99% of the time with the amount of rain we get

We love it. Looks nice and ornamental in the container and it is an almost no work plant really. I just trimmed the brown stems off with scissors earlier in the year. Love these happy accidents
