Talkback: Lemon verbena

. I don't know if I am imagining it, but I recall my parents (Sussex) either growing it, or making a spray of it, to keep cat spray from odouring the air around the front door. What can anyone tell me, please? I bought mine at the garden centre by Philippa

Can anyone help me identify whether this is a weed or a baby seedling?
