I have had this plant since 2014 (was a present from my sister Theresa), I have propagated about 5 or 6 plants which are doing very well. I make use of it on a regular basis in soups, stews and also on pizzas, roast and is a popular addition to salad dressings. Very nice flavour. Can be used fresh or dried form.
