'Tism won again! 🎉
Re:that post about invasive mints and the addition about outcompeting them with related plants, you can look up native lamiaceae species if you're still worried about replacing one invasive species with another! If you live in the USA, uswildflowers.com lets you search by state, and if you wanna narrow your search results even more, look up [plant family] native to your ecoregion!
Tumblr media
There are different-level ecoregional maps for each state too--
Tumblr media
--and some species only occur in the wild within unique subregions. For example, there's a Brazos mint, or rattlesnake flower, that only grows in sandy soil within the post oak belt in Texas, and the post oak savannahs only show up within the east central Texas plains on a level IV-inclusive map.
And I dunno about anyone else, but there's something special about meeting some of your more exclusive neighbors.

Lepechinia hastata
Lepechinia is closely related to Salvia, and the plant pictured looks much like a Salvia, with its fuzzy squarish stems and its whorls of flowers. Lepechinia hastata comes from the Baja California peninsula, and it is sometimes called the Cape pitcher sage. It belongs to the Mint Family (Lamiaceae).

My cuban oregano finally prepping to bloom! In past years they've bloomed as early as October, and I don't know if it's good health or bad health that's making them delay till January.
These are possibly my favorite flowers. The flowerbud starts out as a little pyramid and gradually stretches taller, looking like a rocket ship taking off. When they bloom they'll have a gorgeous deep purple color and smell amazing.
Coleus amboinicus, aka Plectranthus amboinicus, aka Cuban oregano aka Mexican mint aka Indian borage aka Spanish thyme, according to Wikipedia. A member of the mint family

Cedar sage (Salvia roemeriana). The common name derives from the fact that it shares much of its habitat with Ashe juniper. It's very drought tolerant, tolerates a fair amount of shade, and needs good drainage. It's also quite happy to grow in limestone crevices, as shown above.

The summer mints produce some of the most colorful and whimsical wildflowers imaginable. The skullcaps (Scutellaria), with their exaggerated oblong hoods,  are my favorites. Hyssop skullcap (Scutellaria integrifolia), also known as helmet flower and helmet skullcap, is a particularly engaging member of the genus with larger flowers than most. Before they completely open, this graceful perennial’s flowers remind me of blue dolphins leaping from the ocean (no, I’m not smoking anything - not yet anyway). I’m currently looking to add S. integrifolia and S. incanca to my garden beds to mix with my bee balms, as these mints often cohabitate in the wild.
