Pycnanthemum muticum, commonly called mountain mint, is a staff favorite for its pollinator-attracting power.

Don't let its funny-looking name intimidate you (and if it did, don't worry: it's pronounced pick-NAN-thugh-mum): this is simply one of the very best native perennials for attracting a host of pollinators - particularly valuable native bees - to your garden. They flock by the dozen to the tiny, extremely nectar-rich flowers that appear all summer into fall. Even though those actual flowers aren't terribly showy, this plant still looks showy in the garden thanks to the set of silvery leaves that festoon the top of each stem. 

Growing naturally over a large portion of eastern North America, this durable perennial grows well in full sun and wet to dry soil. It can be quite vigorous in wet soils, however, so if you don't want it to spread, try growing under drier conditions. Long, slender stems intermix nicely with other perennials, and the silvery effect of the leaves brings a welcome cool tone to summer gardens. Oh, and they're fragrant, giving off a pleasant resinous mint scent if rubbed. 

All this combined earned mountain mint the coveted 2025 Perennial Plant of The Year award from PPA!

Tiny but convenient!
Color: White, Color: White
Long review: TLDR; it’s cute, pretty durable, tiny but spacious, and handy! First, I feel I should mention—it’s very tiny! I didn’t look at the dimensions, so that’s my fault, haha, not taking points off for it lol. It’s not big enough to fit, say an iPad Pro, but maybe a mini! It’s height is probably enough for a small book, and it’s width is definitely enough for a regular sized book. Also the length from back to front of the bag: it’s very thick! So it fits a lot for the size. It fits my about 1.5 inch thick wallet (about 5-6 inches long), my keys, a mini hairbrush, and a bag I use with toiletries like pads/tampons, mini body spray, mini hand cream, a tiny metal wallet with bandaids, hair ties, q-tips, and cotton rounds, and a couple chapsticks. The front pocket is pretty spacious too, as it fits my AirPods with a case and a bunch of keychains and dangly things on it. The straps are long and adjustable. It looks easy to clean but I haven’t spilled anything or gotten anything on it so it’s a little hard to say. I’ve included a video and pictures for reference! It came pretty smushed and squashed into a flat little pancake but it only took a little while to go to it’s intended shape. I left it full of stuff to mold it overnight (like if you stuff it gently/loosely with, say, a t-shirt or two overnight, it’ll morph into the right shape) The puff ball is cute, and it’s staying on pretty well, but the elastic thing holding it on is slowly stretching a little so it doesn’t look like it’s glued on like I liked at first, but it still looks good! It’s lasted a while now, probably a few months with no issues. Basically, I like it and it’s handy for going to the mall or store, or if you bring very small stuff to the amusement park. (It won’t fit a water bottle, but it’ll fit smaller stuff) In the video, I showed me unpacking all the stuff it can fit, and in the first picture is all that stuff. In the second picture I show the size of my 12.9 inch iPad Pro to as comparison, and in the third picture I show how it barely doesn’t fit. Hope this helps!!

Poor packaging
Color: Gold Pink
Cute backpack, but very poor packaging causes permanent creases in the outer leather material. If this backpack was for myself I would have returned it, but it’s something a 10 yr old will overlook.
