Calamint

An undemanding and modest perennial that blooms with a large number of tiny flowers. It blooms for a record-breaking length of time throughout late summer and autumn. It forms smaller, compact, airy bushes that release a minty-spicy scent. The thyme-like flowers attract bees, bumblebees, and butterflies. It will look good among roses as well as in naturalistic steppe beds, perhaps with lower grasses. This calamint is generally more vigorous. It differs from other calamints with felted leaves by its record flowering length, stiff and shiny leaves, and also a larger number of flowers that do not form seeds and are therefore maximally durable. Sometimes sold under the cultivar name 'Triumphator'.

Lesser calamint White Cloud is an undemanding and modest perennial that reliably perfumes any sunny garden. It naturally grows on the sunny and dry slopes of Southern Europe, which is why it will welcome direct sun here too, along with well-drained, even poorer sandy or loamy soil. It handles winter without trouble, tolerating frosts down to minus twenty-three degrees. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which you just need to transplant straight into the flowerbed, where it will very soon form a compact, airy small shrub reaching a height of forty centimeters. Even complete beginners can easily handle growing it, as the plant does not suffer from diseases or pests. From July to September, it blooms with an incredible number of tiny white flowers that emit a pleasant minty-spicy scent. The flowers, resembling thyme, function as a huge magnet for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies. The entire plant is edible and will perfectly garnish summer dishes. In the garden, it will perfectly complement roses or steppe flowerbeds with lower grasses. Furthermore, you can cut the flowers for smaller fresh bouquets, adding lightness and a fine airy structure to them in a vase.
