Leucosceptrum stellipilum ‘Amanogawa’ Variegated Japanese Shrub Mint

Easy care charmer with soft velvety green foliage heavily splashed with white. The fall blooming spikes of pinkish-white bottlebrush flowers are a welcome surprise and an important addition for pollinators when few things are blooming. Fragrant fuzzy foliage repels deer. Bold texture and stunning variegated foliage light up shady areas. Amanagawa means ‘Milky Way’ galaxy. Easy in moist rich soil, but isn’t fussy and will tolerate most soils.. Not invasive like others in the mint family, but the clump will slowly expand, so site it where it has room and not near precious wimpier companions. 2-3’ tall & wide zone 4-11
