Description

 This herb is quickly growing in popularity as a sugar substitute.  The natural sweetness of the leaves make it a great addition to many recipes. 

This herb will grow to be about 12 inches tall if left alone, and will produce white blooms from early to late summer.  However it is best to remove the blooms as soon as they start to improve the quantity and quality of the leaves.  It is also best to harvest the leaves a small amount at a time throughout the entire growing season.
