Wildflowers - Wild Mint Seeds
We have seen an exponential increase in the amount of interest in Wild Mint in recent years. Many people want to try growing a wild form of mint in their garden for tea or for the aroma that it imparts to their garden. We have also seen a great increase in demand for mint because they are a great pollinator plant, and attract many kinds of pollinators like honeybees, and butterflies. All of these plants are aromatic, and some are quite strong. We were once harvesting Wild Mint, and we could hardly withstand the aroma, and our clothes smelled like a strong tea for quite a while afterwards.

Though not a member of the mint family, this plant has a distinct herbal scent that has hints of citrus. Because its leaves contain citronellol, the essential oil distilled from this plant has a repellent effect on insects. The genus name Monarda honors Spanish botanist Nicolas Bautista Monardes, who studied herbal and medicinal plants from North America during the 16th century. The species name "citriodora" comes from Latin words meaning "having a citrus aroma."Starting at $2.50 USD -
