Virginia Mountain Mint is an easy to grow and underused perennial that grows as a small bush with an upright structure. It has a long bloom time of 4 or more weeks and is highly attractive to pollinators. Its light green and narrow leaves and smaller white flowers have a minty aroma and can be used for tea or tea mixtures. This mint has a visually nice and very fine structure (texture) and it looks great combined with more robust structures (big leaves, big flowers) or even low growing plants. Try it in combination with Coreopsis lanceolata, Silphiums or Echinacea.

Size: 2.5-3' high x 1.5' wide slowly forming dense clumps

Looks fantastic, vigorous
This plant grew large and beautiful the very first year I added it to my garden. I purchased a second plant because I loved it so much. Gorgeous foliage and flowers attract a lot of pollinators. Looks beautiful amongst non-native plants as a filler as well.

A beautiful and useful plant
This looks amazing between my more colorful plants. Smells great, attracts a lot of pollinators and doesn’t need any special care. I love it so much I purchased more!
