White Wood Mint is native to the US and various other locations, and is known for its traditional herbal and medicinal uses. It attracts butterflies, bumble bees, and honey bees to its flowers. More drought tolerant than most mints, it can thrive in a range of soils, including clay and gravel. The plant features an upright growth habit and fragrant foliage that is resistant to deer and rabbits.

The mint leaves are versatile, suitable for raw or cooked use as a flavoring, or can be brewed into tea. The essential oils of the plant are also used for flavoring and fragrance purposes. Due to its spreading nature, it is often recommended to grow White Wood Mint in containers to easily manage and harvest as needed.
