Notes
Able to compete with mints and thrive. Flowers very tasty. Fuzziness of leaves a bit off-putting for use as raw greens.
Despite reputation as aggressive self-seeder, did not come back.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
