Be careful  I've heard it is poisonous if ingested (in large quantities?), and
should not be taken during pregnancy.  It is truly a pleasant mint.  I use it
to discourage bugs in the closets and drawers.  I don't drink teas of it since
hearing about its properties.  Does anyone else know about  these Pennyroyal
warnings?  Plus does anyone have clues about keeping it alive in 100 degree
weather?  I planted it in a place where it gets afternoon shade, but alas it
died once more.  A 25 sq. ft. patch turned brown and disappeared quickly :(  I
was so hoping it would make it through this year.
