Pycnanthemum muticum 'Muticum'
Pycnanthemum is a clump-forming aromatic perennial. Blunt Mountain Mint spreads by rhizomes in optimum conditions but is not invasive as many of the true mints (Menta). This perennial is a favorite of bees and butterflies.
Blunt Mountain Mint flowers best when planted in full sun but can grow in bright shade. Unwanted spreading can be controlled by cutting off the underground rhizomes with a spade. Plants grow best in fertile, moist-to-medium moisture soils that are well-drained.
Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!
