I think that chocolate mint might be too much of a water hog. I've got
some in a pot and it has a fit if it doesn't get regular water at least
every other day; every day if it's really hot and dry. I also think
it's a fairly heavy nitrogen feeder as well. Trouble is a good
description - it grows with plenty of attention but I can't say that it
really thrives.

Hm, that might be my problem then, thanks. ;-)
Spearmint and Lemon balm usually don't need much attention... but those
would be too big for what you want. G

Not like the various basils - step well back when you
plant them or they'll hit you in the eye as they come up! G

But Basil is an annual......


Thanks for the suggestion on the creeping thyme. I'll see what else
folks chime in with as well.

Prostrate rosemary might work, but I'm not sure how tall it gets.
I've not grown it.

Cheers!
