Hi Doug,

   Great selections!  Watch out for slugs on H. plantaginea -- they love 
   it!  But the fragrance is well worth the trouble.

   Cherry Berry has tended to be a little anemic for me.  I'm not sure
   why, but plants here (Urbana IL) and at my parents' home in the Chicago
   suburbs are both having problems.

   I know, it's awful, isn't it.  :)  Fortunately I'm all out of space,
   so I can spend my money on other things that I really don't need.
