Pycnanthemum incanum (Hoary Mountain Mint) Seed
Description
Please allow 3 business days for all seed orders.
Pycnanthemum incanum, or Hoary Mountain Mint, is a perennial wildflower native to eastern North America. It grows 2-4 feet tall and features silvery, fuzzy leaves and clusters of tiny, white to pale lavender flowers blooming from mid-summer to early fall. The plant emits a strong minty aroma when crushed, making it unappealing to deer and other herbivores.
This plant is a magnet for pollinators, including bees, butterflies, and beneficial wasps, due to its high nectar content. It thrives in well-drained soils and full sun to partial shade, making it a versatile choice for pollinator gardens, meadows, and naturalized areas. Its drought tolerance and pest resistance add to its appeal for low-maintenance landscapes.
