Corsican Mint
- Product number: 340500
- Origin: Mediterranean region
- Latin: Mentha requienii
An amusing mint variety that creeps over the ground or between stepping stones like moss, with very small leaves. A light touch already releases a fresh mint flavor. The leaves can be playfully sprinkled into tea for a delicious minty taste.
All mint varieties grow in the sun or in the shade. In the sun, the most compact growth and the most intense color, scent, and flavor are achieved. Each variety goes through two growth stages: in spring, there is an upward growth spurt for flowering. Afterwards, horizontally (rapidly) growing runners emerge, which develop into new plants in another location. Bees and butterflies love mint flowers.
