Mint Strawberry

Mentha space X piperita
The fruity scent and flavor of Strawberry Mint is reminiscent of a strawberry dipped in chocolate.
The compact size of this unusual variety works well in containers and hanging baskets as well as the landscape.  The wonderfully scented small green leaves are topped with clusters of lilac flowers that attract bees and butterflies.  Whole or chopped leaves make a flavorful tea and are also great in fruity desserts, jellies, salads and fruit punches. Perennial zones 5-9

Sun to Part Shade
Height 15-18"
