Close cousins to the garden mint, but without the nasty spreading habit. Useful towards the front of the border, or in a woodland setting among Hostas or ferns. Also attractive in mixed containers. Remove any all-green shoots as soon as they are noticed, since this plant has a tendency to revert.
Forms an upright, bushy mound of soft green leaves, splashed with creamy white. Rosy-pink flowers are studded on short spikes among the leaves.
