Downy Wood Mint, Ohio Horsemint

Ohio Horsemint is a native prairie mint with distinctive whorled purple flower clusters and aromatic foliage: a tough, underused native that naturalizes in dry open sites and provides important mid-summer pollinator support.

• Whorled clusters of small purple flowers bloom from early to midsummer
• Aromatic foliage with a mild mint-oregano scent when crushed
• Native to Ontario dry prairies and open woodlands, important native pollinator plant
• Tolerates dry, poor soils in full sun, well-suited to naturalized and meadow plantings
