Sandy meadows, fields, savannahs, and moist prairies. This species is rare in Ontario. Our plants are grown from garden-sourced seed. This bushy but compact mint with narrow, aromatic, leaves is 1-3 ft tall and has terminal flower clusters made up of numerous small flowers that vary from whitish to lavender with purple spots. This plant is a strong nectar source with a long bloom period, and is benifical to native bees.
