    a drunk college student fell on my tree/plant thing, and snapped it in half. heck i think it grows even better now. sometimes my mexican neighbors ask for some and i always have plenty. so they get to help themselves, because they are not greedy. :D also i think my cat has a syrian rue and white sage addiction. probably more than the organic catnip i grow.

    This is a lovely video, happiness and joy radiating from you is like seeing the smile on Gods face. I have lemon verbena (here in UK) and it's growing in my apartment, smells amazing, going to trim a little then put out in hall way so that it can get some sunshine. I put my leaves in Vodka to make room spray for bathroom, it is also useful as a window cleaner and helps keep flies etc away. Hope I learn to get my plant looking as good as yours. At the moment it's looking spindly, but from your videos and comments I now learned that it likes full sun. Thank you for sharing 💚

    I think I may try and grow lemon verbena on my patio farm this year. I love the lemon flavored herbs and spices to flavor foods so this will be an experiment for me to see if I can grow it in the south in a large pot. And I hope I can find the starter plant around one of the stores or plant centers here. Thank you for introducing me to lemon verbena.👍💙

    I don't have lemon Verbena so I may use fresh squeezed lemons and make that disinfectant I am going to try that next. Excellent video. I need that herb book gonna look for it. I may look to get lemon balm to grow what would you recommend. I am very much interested in growing more herbs and plants in general. This is a great instruction video. I think you should keep the intro of you dancing in the rain I love watching you dance. I enjoy your instructional videos Iv'e learned a lot from you. You have a special way of making it happen in a fun way. Love you My sister:)

    Add oregano leaves for stronger disinfectant. Lemon verbena smells amazing but doesn't have enough by itself to act as a disinfectant.

  • @GmaAlice
    @GmaAlice 6 лет назад

    I think there's going to be a lot of people searching for lemon verbena herb plants including me. Do any of your herb plants overwinter in your garden. I'm curious as you live so far north and have snow and much colder weather than we do here. I have had good luck with mine year round in the past. Ask because your plant is so big and you got a basket full for making cleaner. I so wish I'd kept my book on herbs instead of donating it and others. That gives me a good reason to look online for one as I'm wanting to get back into growing more again. Thanks for giving the timeframe for when the cleaner is ready to use. I have to say I absolutely love your new intro as it seems to represent you so well. We don't often get to see the fun side of creators and I like seeing it. Thank you for braving the heat to make this video. I hope you have a great day!

I’ve been growing mine in full sun here in south florida but it doesn’t get as bushy as yours, sometimes the leaves are yellowish and every couple of months it gets mealybug infestations same thing goes for my thai basil and it’s very hard to get rid of. Do you have any recommendations on how to avoid it? any homemade insecticidal soap that you can recommend or anything? thanks!
