Mentha requienii Corsican Mint

 
 

Mentha requienii Corsican Mint spreading along the ground

Tiny little Corsican Mint packs a great big punch. One of the strongest tasting of all mints, it is also the smallest. Unlike most mints it can be difficult to grow. The Corsican Mint in the picture above is growing in morning shade and afternoon sun and gets water every day---sometimes twice a day during our hot summers.

 

Mentha requienii Corsican Mint creeps slowly next to Chives

 

We don't really use the mint for cooking but it is wonderful to run your hand across and take that scent with you on your skin.

The Corsican Mint in the planter on the right is growing happily in our 20 inch oval planter along with Chives and Garlic Chives.
