Lure in those beneficial pollinators with this pretty native mint bush. So many flowers you won't be able to see the leaves in spring - even the tubestock is covered in blooms, and the bees love them.

You can see in the image gallery how even the tiniest tubestock plant is completely covered in blossom - it's why we take so many photos of them. So if you're wondering how long until your tubestock flower - usually, the second you open the box!
