Compact and colourful.
This product is currently out of stock and unavailable.




Calamintha 'Elfin Purple' is an easy care plant that is rewarding to grow. The small, rosy purple flowers open en masse from deep purple bracts. The flowers crowd the upright flower stems, forming a billowing cloud of blooms.
The grey-green leaves are similar to Catmint and have that delicious spearmint fragrance when brushed against. Plant Calamintha in beds or borders, rock gardens or pots and they will bring you great joy.
Choose a moderately fertile to humus rich, well drained soil. Water your Calamintha in, then they become dry tolerant once established.
