Description

This Monardella is a fuzzy little perennial with large pale pink flowers that are relished by butterflies, and occasionally a hummingbird that's looking for a breath freshener. Smells like toothpaste. Grows in serpentine, heavy adobe, red clays, but also does fine in our decomposed granite.
