Pogogyne is a small genus of flowering plants in the mint family known generally as mesamints or mesa mints.

[1][2][3] These are small annual plants with glandular, aromatic foliage.

They are somewhat variable in appearance but are mostly minty-scented herbs with leaves and flower inflorescences bordered with stiff hairs.

The flowers are white or a shade of purple or pinkish-lavender.

The best known species is the critically endangered vernal pool species San Diego mesa mint, P. abramsii, which is now found only in a few isolated patches of ground near San Diego, California.
