I dug some up, transplanted it into pots, let it get established then
either gave it away or took it to the local nursery to trade 2 for 1 for
other herbs. ;-)

I have a HUGE patch for about 5 years, then it died...

I won't re-plant it. The Mexican Oregano bush is more appealing to me
and is decorative as well. It blooms all year and is currently covered
with little lavender trumpet shaped blossoms.
