I think I'll plant a lot more of this great plant. Evergreen and the deer simply won't eat it. Must taste really bad. Maybe poisonous?

Cotton Lavender is an evergreen perennial herb with aromatic strangely shaped silver leaves with that remind one of ocean coral. In midsummer it bears small yellow flowers like round buttons.
