Keep Bugs Away the Natural Way!
Just 4 to 16 inches tall, it spreads rapidly for a great barrier to fleas, mice, and other pests!
Pennyroyal is a most useful member of the mint family. Traditionally used to repel fleas, mice and other pests, it is also a main ingredient in herbal insect repellents. This upright, creeping perennial reaches 4 to 16 inches tall and spreads indefinitely. Narrow stems are lined with 1 1/2 inch oval leaves and topped with whorls of lilac flowers. Grow like other mints, in rich, moist soil in sun or partial shade. To avoid it becoming invasive, plant in containers or in confined areas. Pkt is 100 seeds.
