Botanical mint, which is most closely aligned in flavour to peppermint, is a fast growing aromatic herb belonging to the Mentha family. Due to its prolific growth habits the plant is quick to become root bound in small pots - which will strangle its health - and so Little Veggie Patch Co MINT 'PEPPERMINT' HEIRLOOM SEEDS is recommended to be grown in larger pots.
