Mint with a lime flavour, can you imagine anything more refreshing? Perfect for the most delicious tea, among other things!
Most mint varieties of the genus Mentha grow in the sun or in the shade. In the sun, the most compact growth and the most intense colour, scent, and flavour are achieved. Each variety goes through 2 growth stages: in spring there is a growth spurt upwards for flowering. Afterwards, horizontally (hard) growing runners develop, which grow into new plants in another location. Bees and butterflies love mint flowers.
