Slender Mountain Mint is a Great Lakes native perennial with a special talent for attracting native bees, butterflies, and other pollinators in extraordinary numbers. The small, purple-tinged white flowers are set against silvery-white bracts that give the plant a frosty, luminous quality in the summer and fall garden. Growing 24 to 36 inches in a tidy clumping habit, it fills borders and naturalized areas with both beauty and ecological value. The aromatic, narrow foliage releases a refreshing minty fragrance when brushed or crushed. Deer and rabbit resistant with excellent disease resistance.
