(Pycnanthemum virginianum) Perennial. Dense clusters of tiny white flowers blanket the tops of this erect multi-branched herbaceous perennial. A pollinator favorite. Flowers and leaves emit a minty fragrance when brushed and are widely used in traditional medicine. Plants grow 2-3’ tall and prefer average to moist soil, a great choice for native meadows and borders.
To Grow:
Direct sow in late Fall or early Spring, press seed into soil of well-prepared seed bed but do not cover as it needs light to germinate. Cold stratified seeds can also be started indoors under lights 6-8 weeks before last frost. To cold stratify, mix seeds with moistened seed starting mix or sand and place it in the refrigerator for 8 weeks, then press seeds into the soil but do not cover them with soil because they need light to germinate. Transplant seedlings outdoors after last frost. Water regularly.
