I got this little plant from a nursery but it didn't have any other clues about its identity. I can't seem to find out what its Latin name is hence I don't know how to care for it. I doubt its hardy in Ireland and will probably need to be overwintered inside. I've grown it in a window box all summer with strawberries and it droops over the side like a proper hanging basket plant. It has typically mint like flowers but the scent is not quite so strong. It roots easily from cuttings and bits of it root in the compost as it trails merrily along.
