Mountain mint is the common name attributed to many American mint species (Pycnanthemum spp.). All species in this genus are actually native to North America. Mountain mints are known for their attractiveness to pollinators, being constantly visited and revisted. Also, these mints smell and taste pretty much exactly like you think mint should. It is worth pointing out, however, that is it not the same mint as the European varieties you may be used to. And some American mints are not healthy in large doses, so check which species you plant.
