Mint, Apple
This hardy perennial is a very robust grower. Apple Mint has interesting light green leaves. They are somewhat hairy on the upper surface and downy underneath, with serrated edges. They can grow up to 3 feet high, but may be kept lower.
Grow Apple Mint in full sun to light shade. Feed them heavily in late summer to guarantee healthy growth the following spring. Apple Mint will survive in dry soil, but will do much better in moist, fertile ground. Cut back or mow down the Mint patch 2 or 3 times a year to encourage fresh growth. Cut the stems even with the ground and throw out the long, woody stems. Strip off and dry whole leaves for potpourris. Save the top 2 to 3 sets of leaves for fresh use and garnishes. Apple Mint’s fragrance may vary in strength; the mild apple flavor doesn’t sustain well in dried leaves.
Mint, Chocolate
Tastes like a Peppermint Patty. Distinct hint of chocolate flavor and aroma. If you are a coffee lover, place a sprig in the bottom of your mug and pour hot coffee over it and let steep for a few minutes. Great stuff! Or try using it finely chopped and added to chocolate sauces, frostings, or ice creams for a refreshing minty flavor.
Mint, Kentucky Colonel Spearmint
THE MOJITO MINT! Commercially grown for Mint Juleps, Mojitos, and spearmint flavoring. Large, dark green, slightly crinkly leaves. Kentucky Colonel is a reliably hardy, strongly flavored spearmint that is favored by many herb growers. OUR MOST POPULAR MINT!
