Characteristics and uses:
Prostanthera cuneata, commonly known as Alpine mint bush, is a very small evergreen shrub in the Sage and Lavender family. It is literally covered with white tinged with purple, tube-shaped flowers from April to August, which makes it a very decorative shrub.
Its small round leaves are strongly aromatic, smelling of camphor and mint when crushed, hence its name of Alpine mint bush. However, its foliage is not edible.
The Alpine mint bush can be planted along stone walls in the sun, alone, or in rock gardens, country hedges, flowerbeds, or pots.
