Johnny's has seeds of a few herb varieties that were developed to yield especially high amounts of essential oil, like their "Quedlinburger Niederliegende" variety of lemon balm. They have a few others: "Resina" calendula, "Superdukat" dill, "Aromata" summer savory, and "Extrakta" sage. I was wondering if folks knew of other herbs with varieties that have been especially developed for high eo content and where I might be able to get them.
