Product Description
Mint (Lemon) is a hardy perennial that provides the herb garden with plenty of excitement and colour. This mint variety produces oval purple tinged leaves and is highly fragrant - smelling and tasting very similar to lemon! These leaves can be used for making tea or for use in puddings and other dishes. Ideal for growing in containers. Avoid planting any variety of mint in the ground as it is incredibly invasive.

Growing at a glance…
Unpack your plants immediately upon arrival and give them a little water if they feel a bit dry. Pot on for 2-3 weeks before planting them out into their final positions outdoors. Alternatively, you can plant these plugs directly outdoors if the weather permits (all risk of frost is gone). Water these plants freely during the growing season and make sure to dead-head spent flowers regularly to prolong their display.
