Botanical mint, which is most closely aligned in flavour to peppermint, is a fast growing aromatic herb belonging to the Mentha family. Due to its prolific growth habits the plant is quick to become root bound in small pots - which will strangle its health - and so growing in larger pots is recommended.
When to Plant:
Zone 1: September - April
Zone 2: September - May
Zone 3: Anytime
Zone 4: Anytime
(Please refer to images for zone map)
Soil: It will grow in a wide range of soil conditions from free draining to damp. Make sure to integrate with plenty of compost and look to feed one a month with seaweed extract
Position: Full sun to shaded, it will survive and thrive in most light conditions.
How to Plant: Sow directly into a container and let it germinate and establish there, as mint can be invasive and a bit of a bully. Plant at least two seeds in each hole and keep moist until germinated.
Spacing: 30cm
Depth: 0 -1cm
Companion Plants: Tomatoes & Cabbage, but best to grow alongside in its own container.
Approximate no. of seeds: 250-300
Note: The Little Vege Patch Co source all of their seeds locally and in small batches to ensure they remain at their maximum viability for germination
