Calamint features dainty spikes of lilac purple trumpet-shaped flowers with white overtones rising above the foliage from late spring to late summer. Its fragrant oval leaves remain green in color throughout the season.

This is a relatively low maintenance plant, and is best cleaned up in early spring before it resumes active growth for the season. It is a good choice for attracting bees to your yard.
