I was really amazed by its benefits. The moment I saw the plant, I was able to identify it right away since there are many of these in the Philippines. To validate that I was correct, I showed the photo to my mother, and she confirmed that in our local dialect it is called “otot-otot.” She also mentioned that it has a strong smell, and she agreed with what you explained, that it’s very good to plant in the garden because its scent helps reduce pest infestations. Actually, I just knew it.

By the way, I noticed that your garden looks very clean and well-organized. It’s beautiful and really helps reduce stress. It feels like your own little paradise.
