They are difficult to find I'll grant you that! Also there are at least two types: Pogostemon Cablin is the one you need. This is the one with the nicer foliage and fragrance. The other is called something like Pogostemon heyneanus (or something like that!) that one has a woody stem and is not so fragrant. I gather these are from the Lamiaceae family.
