Clinopodium douglasii, (synonym Micromeria douglasii),[3] yerba buena,[4] or Oregon tea[5] is a rambling aromatic herb of western and northwestern North America, ranging from British Columbia southwards to Southern California and from the Pacific coast eastwards to western Montana.[6][7] The plant takes the form of a sprawling, mat-forming perennial.[8] The name "yerba buena" derives from Spanish for "good herb" and is applied to various other plants.
