Low hummocks of fragrant catmint-like leaves are studded with deep rose-pink flowers that are considerably larger and showier than those of the much more commonly planted Calamintha nepeta.  The two species actually work well together, dotted in a perennial border or cottage garden to provide complementary, colors, textures, fragances, and flowering seasons.

Sun to light shade; average to dry soil (drought tolerant); 8"x12"; late spring to summer; Zone 4

Propagated from seed; deep 3.5-inch pots
