Prostanthera Linearis (Narrow-Leaved Mint Bush)

Prostanthera Linearis (Narrow-Leaved Mint Bush) is a graceful Australian native shrub renowned for its fine, aromatic foliage and abundant display of soft mauve to pale purple flowers in spring. The fragrant leaves release a refreshing mint scent when brushed, while the nectar-rich blooms attract native bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. Its naturally elegant habit makes it a beautiful addition to native gardens, cottage gardens, and mixed shrub borders.

Hardy and easy to maintain, Prostanthera Linearis performs best in well-drained soils in full sun to part shade. Its dense evergreen foliage provides year-round interest, while a light prune after flowering helps maintain a compact shape and encourages prolific blooming the following season. This versatile shrub is an excellent choice for gardeners seeking a colourful, fragrant, and low-maintenance Australian native.
