Fill your garden with fresh fragrance and delicious flavor with Georgia Apple Mint, a greenhouse-grown starter live plant prized for its soft fuzzy leaves, refreshing apple-mint aroma, and vigorous growth. Mentha rotundifolia, commonly known as Apple Mint, is a hardy perennial herb that is perfect for teas, beverages, desserts, fruit salads, and garnishes while attracting bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. With proper care, it may produce blooms under suitable growing conditions.

Mentha rotundifolia thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers consistently moist, well-draining soil. Its velvety green foliage releases a pleasant fruity mint fragrance when brushed or harvested. During summer, spikes of small white to pale lavender flowers provide nectar for pollinators and add ornamental interest to herb gardens, raised beds, and patio containers. Growing mint in containers is recommended to help control its spreading habit.
