(kal-a-MIN-tha: ne-PET-ah)
This plant has long wiry stems that grow out 18-24 inches, the top of the stems are covered with small lilac-rose flowers with purplish dots. Plants flower over a very long period from early summer to frost. The small rounded semi-shiney leaves and the stems with the small flowers give this plant an attractive appearance mixed in with grasses. The foliage is scented and the plants are somewhat evergreen. They will self seed around but not to a difficult degree. In the spring the foliage forms a mat on the ground which adds late winter and spring interest.
Lightly cover seeds, use F 65-70, germination in
7-14 days. If no germination in 3 or 4 weeks,
move to 24-39ºF for 4 weeks then move to 65F
for germination.
100 seeds.
