About This Plant
Like all mints, it can be aggressive in small landscapes. It has very densely hairy leaves and stems that give it a fuzzy texture. It grows best in well-draining soils that are high in organic matter but is tolerant to a wide range of soil types. Pollinators love it, and it is deer and rabbit resistant.
