Harvest in second year after planting

Mint can be terribly invasive, particularly in rich, moist soil. To keep it from overtaking your garden, confine it to a bed with edging of metal or plastic, or plant in a large pot.

Grows well in most soils, prefers part shade. Prune plants back hard in early summer to promote good top growth. Clip leaves or branches as needed throughout the year.

Dimensions:
Several seedlings in a 90mm pot
Harvest: Ready to harvest from 20 days
Uses:
Dry the leaves and flowers for peppermint tea, or use them fresh. The flowers are edible and bring distinctive character to salads and sweets.
