Hats it smell and taste like?

Could be hyssop (which smells like licorice). If so, this is technically a herb, but not culinary, to my knowledge.

Looks like catnip. If it smells skunky that's what it is. It could also be lemon balm...if it smells lemony, but I'm still thinking catnip.

Looks like hyssop.

it's hard to tell without seeing the flowers. It could be catnip, maybe rosemary? It looks like something in the mint family.

Looks like catnip to me! Check out to see if it's lemony or regular. I use catnip to make all sorts of delicious things. Catnip cookies are a favorite here and so is the tea - both the humans and the felines love it. Recently I read of catnip pesto on the Horizon Herbs catalog! Sounds like a winner to me!

Looks like catnip to me too.

It could be catnip, maybe rosemary?

Catnip most likely...Rosemary?? LOL!

It's catnip. A vicious weed here. Lemon balm has more jagged edges.

Agree with others. Definitely not rosemary and my lemon balm has more delicate, thinner leaves.

Find a cat(I'm assuming you don't have one cuz the plant, if it were catnip, would be toast by now)...a friend's, a neighbor's...a cat will tell ya. And yes, there are cats that are not affected by catnip, but they are in the minority.

It does look like catnip. I had to cut mine back a few days ago because it was over my head. Then I was inside later and my cat came up and started biting my hand. I couldn't figure out why, then I remembered I was handling the catnip.

It is in a concrete block and has a concrete block with herbs on each side...
Plus sage and pine needle pile behind it... I thought I had the flower bud in picture....... Raspberry plants nearby too lots of stuff in the way... is prob why...
Now to make tea do I need to dry them first ? buds not open yet but look light lilac colored...
Thanks yall

I'd cut off the flowers, they take away form the strength of the Catnip. I'd definitely say it is catnip. I used to sell it. To make a tea just cut some off fresh and put in a cup of hot water and let it steep. I found out the hard way that my herb teas are colorless, not like regular tea! If I'm wrong Lemon balm would make a great tea too!
