White Horehound is a small perennial plant with a habit similar to that of mint and a scent slightly reminiscent of thyme. Once very common, it has somewhat fallen out of favor despite its charms and numerous aromatic virtues. This herb is also appreciated by bees and can be used in a decoction to fight caterpillars.
