Blephilia Ciliata - Downy Wood Mint

Light: Full Sun Soil Moisture: Dry to Average

Like most things in the mint family, this is deer and rabbit resistant, but unlike other mints this is not an aggressive spreader. Beautiful tiers of purple flowers in late spring through mid-summer that pollinators love. The seedheads persist through winter and add great fall and winter interest. Does well growing in thin soils over limestone like we have here in Nashville.
