My mother was growing them last year and its regrown apparently, but
she cant remember what it is, since she was growing a bunch of
different herbs last year, so any ideas as to what it is would be
great

Hard to tell anything from the picture. A better look at the flower
might help. Doesn't really resemble any culinary herb I am familiar
with. Does it have any particular aroma when you crush the leaves?


I have grown many culinary herbs and considered many more. This doesn't
look like one. A clearer and closer pic would help (hint: if you cannot
hold the camera steady try resting it on something)

This bloke:

has just about every herb known. I don't think you will find it there.
