This mint is gorgeous and spreads slowly, so it is not invasive like many mints . It has a soft fragrance and is beautiful as a background plant in a bed with its silvery sage green leaves. It grows about waist high before blooming . Benificial insects love it as well as butterflys . It is a wonderful Dried flower and adds minty pale green and white fragrant freshness to fresh bouquets .
I use it as a filler in fresh flower bouquets and it is also a beautiful dried flower for winter arrangements

All of our seed offerings were grown here. We have been seed savers for 20 years. Our seeds are packaged in original art packets, hand folded with 100% recycled paper. Instructions for growing are not on the packs but are on the listing under seed template. Books on gardening as well as many catalogs carry general information on growing seeds. I am available by e-mail or phone to answer any growing questions as well. You won't find that service from many sources of seeds . The shipping on our orders also includes the processing and handling charges which is also less or equal to most seed companies. Remember we hand pack each order and drive from the farm to the post office to ship your order. I are not a big seed company, in fact not a company at all. I am homestead gardener.
