<<I think you could hedge
it too. We have replaced all the Artemesia 'Powis Castle' on the slopes
with the T. f. A. because the Artemesia looks rattty after a year or two.
I am sorry because Artemesia is a native and smells so good.>> Teucrium will
certainly clip into a low hedge - heat and drought-proof. I find Powis Castle
does not do well in a Med climate - try Artemesia aborescens or A. abrotanum.
find they do much better. Abrotanum needs cutting down occasionally to stop it
getting leggy. Eric http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/E_Rowe
