Apple Mint for SPRING PLANTING is now ready to ship!
You can also plant perennial herbs in the fall and have beautiful well-established, rapidly growing plants come up in the spring! Plant in the ground in early spring or in late summer after high temperatures have subsided, up until a week before first frost. Keep moist and allow plenty of sunshine. Mulch to protect from the winter weather.
Apple Mint, also referred to by my kids as "Fuzzy Mint," is an old fashioned standard. We love our "Fuzzy Mint!" Bruise the leaves and put them in a pitcher of ice water for a refreshing treat. We make our favorite tea with Apple Mint and Chamomile. It relaxes the mind and the tummy! The fresh or dried Apple Mint leaves can be used to make a delicious Apple Mint Jelly. Fresh leaves can also be used as a garnish and in salads.
Easy to grow but can be invasive. Folks with small yards should consider growing Apple Mint in a container or raised bed.
