Blue-green leaves with a sweet and fruity flavor on upright stems with spikes of small mauve flowers in summer. Attracts pollinators but is deer and rabbit resistant. Spreads aggressively by rhizomes and is best grown in large containers or sited where it is limited by hardscape and/or allowed to spread as a groundcover. One of many remarkable mint creations from the renowned Illinois breeder, Jim Westerfield.
