Wild Bergamot is a member of the mint family of plants.

Its flowers and foliage have a slight mint-like fragrance.

In pre-settlement times, the species was probably found primarily on prairies. But unlike most prairie plants which seldom grow by themselves in non-prairie areas, Wild Bergamot grows easily in all open field habitats.
