Sherry - no problem. I piggy-back sometimes myself.
There does seem some confusion about what Mexican oregano is since the plant can vary from region to region. And this type (Lippia) seems (from what I'm reading) to be THE type. I've also read that it's hard to find seeds. I dunno. I do see this plant for sale at Companion Plants in OH. I've ordered neat stuff from them several years ago like patchouli plants. Their location is good for me, maybe not so good for you although you'd have better luck finding it out there on the west coast. I'm always skeptical when it comes to oregano - like growing beautiful plants from seed only to find that they taste nothing like the oregano used in Italian cooking.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize that we can't eat money. Cree proverb
