description for "Mint: Pycnanthemum virginianum"
Mountain Mint, native to the United States, packs a lot of fragrance into its small leaves. Because of its diminutive stature, its best grown in pots or containers. Keep it in a sunny location and water whenever the soil begins to dry out. Can be planted outdoors in the Autumn. Gardeners in northern zones should keep the tender perennials and desirable annual herbs indoors during the cold months.
