Well it's worth a try at least, I have plenty to work with.

Unfortunately I think the plant changes as it gets older.  It seems the 
leaves are tougher now and less fragrant, plus the fragrance takes on more 
anise/fennel notes.  Next time I want to do this earlier in the plant's 
lifecycle; I've already had to cut flowers off twice this season.
