Hairy Wood Mint (Blephilia hirsuta) is a resilient, shade-tolerant native perennial that adds quiet charm and pollinator value to woodland gardens and shaded borders. This 32-plant pack offers a beautiful, biodiversity-boosting option for gardeners seeking to enrich low-light areas with texture, color, and ecological function.
In mid to late summer, Hairy Wood Mint produces distinctive whorls of pale purple flowers stacked along hairy, square stems, accompanied by toothed green foliage that adds layered texture throughout the season. These blooms are an important nectar source for native bees and other pollinators, especially in shady environments where floral resources are scarce.
Thriving in dappled light and moist, well-drained soils, Hairy Wood Mint is low-maintenance and long-lasting, slowly spreading to form soft colonies without becoming aggressive.
Why Choose a Tray of Hairy Wood Mint?
Plant Hairy Wood Mint in a shady to partly sunny garden, and enjoy a graceful native that supports pollinators and brings subtle beauty to your understory planting palette.
