Mentha requienii ~ Corsican mint
Sensational, mat forming groundcover that features tight green, aromatic foliage and tiny lavender flowers in summer.
Imagine! Your own living seat, sculpted from earth and upholstered in Corsican Mint.
The minty fragrance will delight all who sit there!
Prefers dappled shade and will grow in moist soils but be careful as it can be sunburnt in unprotected hot areas.
Plant as a lawn substitute or between stones so that the gentle scent of mint is released when walked on. This is the mint from which Creme de Menthe is derived.
Ideal for…
- Best suited to temperate climates as it does not like humidity
- A lawn substitute
- Living furniture or sculpture
- Between stones so that the gentle scent of mint is released when walked on
- A pretty alternative mulch
- Use in your salad as a living place mat you can eat!
