Description
2021 Perennial Plant of the Year! Forming a dense, spreading mound of tiny leaves with pretty white blooms, Calamintha offers a cooing foil for more vibrant-hued flowers and blends beautifully with pastel blooms a serene, rejuvenating garden. Allow the plants to drape gracefully over the edges of planters, rock walls, and retaining walls to soften the look. An ideal plant for the herb garden, Calamintha has fragrant foliage that releases a sweet minty scent with herbaceous and fruity undertones when the leaves are brushed against or crushed. Easy to grow, reliable, and versatile, Calamintha is ideal for edging walkways, and it makes a lovely, pollinator-friendly, no-mow ground cover. Also known as Lesser Calamint, this versatile plant is deer resistant and an attractive filler in cut flower arrangements. Plant in full sun and well-drained soil. Hardy in zones 5-7, it appreciates afternoon shade in hot-summer regions.

Long lasting blooms and nearly care free
"I bought two of these in the spring and have been delighted all summer with a fairyland of tiny white blooms. The plant has a refreshing aroma and a compact growth habit. I love it and plan on buying several more this fall."
I would buy these again. Healthy and growing well.
"The plant arrived healthy and in a timely manner. It is growing well in my flower garden and is flowering profusely. The bees and butterflies love it. Especially the bees."
I am Obsessed with Calamint - want more!
"I'm in love. This plant is still blooming in late October. The minty green foliage and white flowers keep bumblebees and all kinds of bees happy all season, and they've now aged to a more purple foliage and very pale purple flowers. The airy texture is so beautiful. I want dozens more!"
