was much used by the Indian. from it 
was made a beverage for use as we use 
tea. It was also used for flavoring other 
foods and from it was extracted a remedy 
for colds. It is strange that this plant 
should have been completely overlooked 
by our herb gardeners. It is very fragrant 
and has a long flowering period from June 
until October. The plant is perennial and 
worthy of a place in any ornamental gar-

plant it ranks very high. Pioneer settlers 
reported fine crops of honey from it. Seed
