All of our Herb Plants are grown organically with certified organic potting mixes and fertilizers.
Apple Mint (Mentha suaveolens) is a sweetly aromatic mint variety with soft, fuzzy leaves and a subtle fruity scent reminiscent of green apples. It's a versatile herb, perfect for culinary use, home remedies, or simply enjoying in the garden.
Uses:
Culinary: Delicious in teas, fruit salads, syrups, cocktails, and desserts. Its mild flavour is less sharp than peppermint, making it a favourite for refreshing summer drinks.
Medicinal: Traditionally used to support digestion, soothe nausea, and as a gentle calming herb.
Aromatic: Ideal for potpourri, herbal baths, and natural air freshening.
Ornamental: Its soft, pale green foliage and gentle scent make it a lovely addition to herb borders or container gardens.
Physical Characteristics:
Height: Typically grows 40–80cm tall.
Leaves: Round, slightly fuzzy light green leaves with a sweet apple-like fragrance.
Flowers: Spikes of pale pink or white flowers in late summer, attractive to pollinators.
Growth Habit: Vigorous spreader—great in pots or controlled garden areas.
