CALAMINTHA SEEDS

The Calamintha genus, commonly known as Calamint, is a fragrant and versatile member of the Lamiaceae family. These herbaceous perennials and subshrubs are celebrated for their delicate, tubular flowers in soft shades of white, lavender, or pale pink, which bloom profusely from summer into autumn. Calamintha is a favourite for pollinator gardens, as it attracts bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects.

Native to Europe, the Mediterranean, and parts of Asia, Calamintha thrives in well-drained soils and sunny locations, making it ideal for borders, rock gardens, and cottage-style plantings. Species like Calamintha nepeta, or Lesser Calamint, are particularly prized for their long-lasting blooms, drought tolerance, and aromatic foliage, which releases a minty fragrance when crushed.

The Calamintha genus combines ornamental charm with practical benefits, making it an excellent choice for gardeners seeking low-maintenance, pollinator-friendly plants that provide lasting interest in the garden.
