Positive PvillePlanter On Nov 9, 2004, PvillePlanter from Pflugerville, TX (Zone 8b) wrote:

This cultivar tends to grow a little taller and has a real nice stronger minty smell. Very heat and drought tolerant and blooms continuously from late winter/early spring until frost. Looks dead for about 2 months in the winter. I cut mine down to ground level in the winter since it growns and blooms on old growth. Does best in full sun but easily tolerates some shade. Good for borders. Can easily get out of bounds when used as ground cover.
