Herb id

Can anyone help with this 2 herbs plants.


the leaves taste like pepper.

and this one as well.

 

Does the top one have any scent to the leaves?

 

they are not mine , so don`t really know , apparently the one on the top is called pepper plant , for the flavour similar to the black pepper .

 

Top one is some sort of Labiate, second one could be a spindly looking Tansy. Not being much help there am I.

 

thank you Zigs , all your jokes make me forget what a great gardner you are ....

 

You got me confused with the other bloke

I was having a cigarette in a church yard where we were working with a young apprentice.

I pointed out the Bugle flowers and explained them to the lad, showing him the 2 lipped flowers that gives the genus the name.

I said that "As you know, Labia is Latin for lips."

There was a pause and a look of confusion on the lads face before he said,

"I do know that, how do I know latin for..........."

"......Oh"

 

Just goes to show, you can remember anything if it's got meaning for you!

Plant 1 looks like it could be a marjoram or an oregano, I can't quite tell what the scale is. They are not peppery. however.

Plant 2 could be one of those achillea millefoliums, or a goldenrod. Has it got a strong medicinal smell?

 

I immediately thought the first looked like Basil ... and it could possibly be ...

Could the second be a Chamomile of some sort? There are very strange ones.
