name of plant


Question
I used to have a plant that had lemon-scented leaves and would trail depending on the size. I am hoping you can help me with the name because I cannot find it on line or in any greenhouses. It is known to me as a lemon scented charlie (plectranthus australis). All I can find on line is swedish ivy. Is there another name for it? If so, do you know what it is? I am trying to locate it because the person I usually buy it from has his own greenhouse and will retire soon.

Answer
Sabina,

The only name I can find for it is the same as you have. I did find a source in Australia where it can be bought: http://shaman-australis.com.au/shop/index.php?cPath=29_204&osCsid=824d4bcd9ae9b9...

I am sure that once you get it it could be kept year around indoors in a hanging basket. You might ask the guy you get it from where he gets it from and he may be willing to pass on his source so you can get it there after he retires. Good luck.
