The Pennyroyal ‘Mosquito Plant’ is more than just a natural insect repellent—it’s a hardy, aromatic powerhouse that thrives in warm, sunny gardens. With its dense, creeping growth, it works as a living mulch, keeping soil cool and suppressing weeds while releasing a fresh minty scent that repels mosquitoes. Perfect for planting along pathways, between pavers or in pots near outdoor spaces, this fast-growing herb is both practical and fragrant, offering a beautiful, low-maintenance solution for bug-free summer evenings.
