Willowy Mint
Monardella viminea
Willowy Mint, also called Willowy Monardella, is a distinctive and rare native perennial herb notable for its willow-like, mint-scented leaves and beautiful flowers. It produces small, dense clusters of pink to lavender flowers from early to mid-summer that are highly attractive to bees and butterflies. This plant typically reaches about 1 to 2 feet in height and spreads modestly, forming a low, bushy mound. Ideal for rock gardens, native plant gardens, or as part of a pollinator-friendly landscape, it thrives in well-drained soils and full to partial sun, requiring minimal water once established.
