Pycnanthemum virginianum
Our team's favorite mint!
What's not to love?!? Frothy white flowers, refreshing delicate mint scent, and a long-lasting bloom. And, like other members of the mint family, it provides important immune-boosting action for bees, including bumblebees, other native bees, and honeybees.
