Field Notes

Description:

Clusters of white tiny flowers and delicate fern-like foliage with a pungent aroma describe this fragrant herb that is equally at home in nature, flower gardens, and herb gardens. It comes in a variety of colors, some commercial brands are quite brilliant, but usually when I find one growing wild it's colors are very subdued, and most often the flowers are just white.

Habitat:

It is native to temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere in Asia, Europe, and North America.
