Can anyone help me out?? Years ago, I purchased a bunch of different herbs for my herb garden. I had one section with cooking herbs, the other with ornamental/old use herbs. Anyways, I purchased a few little fuzzy, scalloped type leafed kind called vick's plants. When you rubbed them, the gave off the aroma both in the air and on your fingers of Vicks vapor rub. Does anyone know what these are, I would like to purchase some online or something. I can't seem to find them, or what they are really called. I no longer have anymore in my garden. Thanks.
