    It works like a vaporizer. We'll get stoned through the vents on the way there.

    Yeah. It's awesome. It is a perennial in this climate and it produces a lot of foliage. Even in a cold climate it produces enough to make it worth your time. The pesto thing is a good way to use up the goods when cutting it back. Freeze the pesto and it will keep for a long time.

    I don't know why Lemon V is not a more common herb. I really can't think of an herb i appreciate more. I've got friends asking for it every time they come over. From the horticulture aspect... easy to grow, drought resistant and a natural pest deterrent.

    i have noticed it is not common. i have looked at multiple places and cannot find seeds. is it from cutting only?

    Not sure. They are around about 50% of the time at my local nursery. Plant form, not see-ds.

    the flowers smell AMAZING.... (danny, i know i have some shots -- there might be some in the beginning of my garden thread)

    from my understanding, they take a long time to grow from seed -- hence why you most commonly find them in seedling form at the store. (mine flowered but didn't seed.... )
