6 live bare root plants with 5–6" stems
Field grown in Brattleboro, Vermont
Washed clean of soil, mailed in moist medium
Citrus Mint — sometimes called Orange Mint or Bergamot Mint — offers a delightfully bright and unexpected flavor profile: the familiar backbone of peppermint with vivid notes of orange, lemon, and citrus zest layered on top. It is one of the most aromatic mints we grow, and it produces a beautiful, complex flavor that is endlessly useful in the kitchen.
Use it in fruit teas, summer cocktails, lemonade, desserts, fruit salads, or anywhere a bright citrusy herb note would elevate a dish. It is equally at home as a garnish or steeped as a standalone tea. In the garden, the leaves are a deep, rich green with a glossy finish and the scent alone makes it worth growing. Hardy and vigorous, it overwinters reliably in Vermont conditions.
QUICK SPECS:
Best uses: Fruit teas, cocktails, lemonade, desserts, fruit salads, garnish
Hardiness: USDA Zones 5–9
Mature height: 12–18 inches
Light: Full sun to partial shade
