  • Your free native plant will be Short-toothed Mountain Mint, Pycnanthemum muticum. This plant is expected to grow roughly 3 feet tall by 2 feet wide, but does have a tendency to spread.

    Mountain Mint produces clusters of small lavender and white flowers which are highly attractive to a large assortment of beneficial insects, making it a wonderful plant to support native pollinators!
