6 live bare root plants with 5–6" stems
Field grown in Brattleboro, Vermont
Washed clean of soil, mailed in moist medium
Apple Mint is a beloved culinary variety prized for its sweet, fruity flavor profile — softer and less sharp than classic peppermint, with a gentle, rounded taste that is perfect for desserts, fresh teas, cocktails, and fruit pairings. If you find standard peppermint too intense, Apple Mint is your variety.
This is our personal favorite here at Mint Monster, and for good reason: the large, velvety-soft leaves are an absolute pleasure to work with in the kitchen. This heirloom variety has been grown right here in Brattleboro, Vermont for more than 40 years — it is as local and proven as it gets. It grows tall and lush, is exceptionally hardy, and brings beautiful texture and color to any garden bed. Technically classified as Mentha suaveolens, it is sometimes called spearmint, but its flavor and character are distinctly its own.
QUICK SPECS:
Best uses: Desserts, fruit dishes, cocktails, teas, mojitos, garnish
Hardiness: USDA Zones 4–9
Mature height: 18–30 inches
Light: Full sun to partial shade
