Calamintha (Lesser Calamint) nepeta subsp. Nepeta (Lesser Calamint)

An outstanding plant for the late summer to fall garden. Airy masses of dainty lavender and white flowers from August until frost. Soft medium green leaves that have a mint fragrance when crushed. Heat and drought resistant, although it is recommended to plant where they get relief from the late afternoon sun. Excellent in rock walls.
