Mountain Mint, Virginia. Pycnanthemum virginianum. USDA zones 3-7.
A native herbaceous perennial belonging to the mint family, it is widely known for its intense fragrance and value to local ecosystems.
All parts of the plant release a strong, refreshing minty-oregano aroma when crushed or brushed against. It has square, green or reddish stems, narrow and lance-shaped leaves, and dense, flat-topped clusters of tiny tubular white flowers marked with subtle purple dots. It does not spread aggressively like non-native mints.
Despite the name "mountain mint," the plant is naturally found in lowlands, wet meadows, stream edges, and moist prairies rather than dry mountain slopes.
Grows upright to about 2 to 4 feet tall with a width of 1 to 2 feet.
These are sold as plugs, from a 50 plug tray, and are sized about 1.5" x 1.5" x 5" deep.
