Grows best in full sun, and an average to dry, well-drained soil. If desired, pinch main stems in June just before the buds form, to keep the plant compact. After flowering, remove old flowers to promote a second flowering. No serious pest or disease problems.
Licorice-scented foliage can be used in teas and added to salads. This plant is described as Zone 6 hardiness but has survived for three years here at our own display gardens in Zone 5.
