Blue, I saw those links and the wording rang a bell of recognition. It was the historical aspect that I remembered though and not the plant. The rocky island (Yerba Buena) that Wikipedia mentions that connects the San Francisco - Oakland Bay Bridge was called Treasure Island when I was there. I left the United States from there to go catch my ship at Pearl Harbor and when I was discharged, it was from Treasure Island also.
And a beautiful spot it is,Randy!
Oh my, I just found the berries and cream mint on ebay! How many plants can a mom ask for for Mother's Day????
