Features: Traditional garden mint, perfect for fresh mint sauce.
Sowing Guide - Indoors: Sow indoors for surest results, 0.5cm (1/4") deep, in small trays of compost. Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 15-20oC (60-68oF) is ideal. Seedlings usually appear in 14-28 days. Transplant seedlings individually to 8cm (3") pots when large enough to handle. Grow on in cooler, but not cold conditions. Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out 30cm (1') apart.
Sowing Guide - Outdoors: Sow outdoors for ease, thinly where they are to crop, 0.5cm (1/4") deep directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Thin seedlings to 30cm (1') apart.
Soil Type: Moist, well drained soil
Position: Part shade
Hints & Tips: Mint is best grown in containers or contained within a bottemless pot sunk into the ground. This prevents the roots spreading unnecessarily.
