Ruta graveolens
This plant grows in height to approximately 2ft. It has blue-green foliage and produces yellow flowers. It prefers full sun.
Pick leaves as required. Mainly grown for decorative purposes some people use the leaves in salads but be careful as this should NOT be eaten in large quantities and some people are allergic either from eating it or by touch! However, it is unlikely you would want to eat much of it if at all as it is bitter and do not touch with bare skin just in case. Nonetheless, it is a very attractive evergreen to add some year round colour.
Despite the negatives it does have a medicinal history of curing coughs and such things as stomach disorders.
