I'm fairly sure Mother of Herbs is known in the UK as "Sticky Thyme". I had a cutting given to me by one of my writing group who had been gifted it by a friend returning from the Caribbean, where they used it to flavour gravy. I thought it had a minty/lemony smell. It grew very well on my windowsill in the kitchen which gets all the afternoon sun, but I was very disappointed when I tried it in tea as there was very little flavour. Maddie's plant may be much stronger because it is grown in a sub-tropical climate. Maybe we'll learn more in Part 2!Sarah Headhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08975928642943693605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3765060233389739578.post-35035993333180822922013-11-13T20:39:11.734-08:002013-11-13T20:39:11.734-08:00Nice post Maddie, I have no knowledge of this herb...Nice post Maddie, I have no knowledge of this herb so find it very interesting. I may look for it as an indoor plant for winter as I am sure our cold southern winters would turn it mush. What does it taste like?chookie2noreply@blogger.com
