6 live bare root plants with 5–6" stems

Field grown in Brattleboro, Vermont

Washed clean of soil, mailed in moist medium

Chocolate Mint is a standout culinary variety with the bold, clean flavor of classic peppermint and a subtle, rich cocoa undertone that makes it genuinely distinctive in the kitchen. It is perfect for desserts, teas, cocktails, and anywhere you want classic peppermint with a little something extra.
