Overview
Blunt Mountain Mint is a distinctive native wildflower that simply buzzes with life. Bees, butterflies, and other pollinators cover the small, white, nectar-rich flowers from mid to late summer. Blooms form in button-like clusters, surrounded by silver bracts that give plants a frosted appearance. Foliage smells strongly of spearmint, with the added benefit of being unpalatable to deer and rabbits. This resilient perennial can tolerate heat and humidity and naturalizes easily. (Pycnanthemum muticum)
