Part shade? All sun? East, West, South or North? Any recommendations?
There's nowhere I can plant it that I don't really care if it takes over
but what will be the best place for it?


I'm in TN and mine is in partial sun facing south with it's back to
honeysuckle. It's come back every year but it hasn't spread.

Another use that others haven't mentioned is to use it as a dream
enhancer - I've made dream pillows using it.

With all due respect, herbs can be extremely dangerous. I suggest
anyone thinking of using herbs for any reason, ingestion, smelling,
burning, eating, drinking the tea of, etc. needs to vigilantly
research all the implications invloved. Sometimes herbs oils can be
volitile and even effect your health systemically through skin. Just
be careful.
