Let's have a latin name, Chris. Around here, Oregon, is a good herb (Yerba 
Buena) that is in the mint family, Satureja douglasii. But then, sometimes 
Yerba Buena refers to peppermint.

Is that the pleasant smelling plant that creeps over the surface, often 
by road cuts in the coastal hills, and makes very pleasant tea with no
medicinal effects?  Sometimes called Oregon tea or sacajawea douglasia.
