Thank you for any ideas.

    looks a bit like French Tarragon, is it scented?

     

    Devon.
  • ooh will check tomorrow.  It is in the herb part of the school garden. 

  • I checked this today and it had a very strong lemon scent.  I was told by another parent it was lemon mint.  Never seen hat before, so still learning  image

    Lemon verbena? Lippia?
  • I think it might be Lemon Verbena. I bought one earlier this year at a plant fair at Felley Priory in north Notts. A couple of leaves steeped in hot water for a few minutes makes a very refreshing drink (you might like to add a bit of sugar)image.

    Doh!.... slow off the mark as usual

    Try Lemon Verbena, that's what it looks like to me. Not fully hardy, if you like it  pot it up and bring it in for winter



    In the sticks near Peterborough
