A similar thing happens with fennel and dill. The result is something that tastes like a weaker mix of both and the fennel doesn't grow a bulb.

Peppers and tomatoes can do this too. I used to grow tomatoes and habaneros in the same raised garden bed, and the tomatoes always came out with quite the kick

Define close please. Also mint please I got a nice lemon balm patch right next to some Greek oregano I bought because why not. The rest of my oregano lives in the bee alley.
