Mentha arvensis Banana Mint

Mountain Valley Growers USDA Certified Organic Herb, Perennial and Vegetable Plants

		The little wagon shows the lovely chartreuse foliage of the Banana Mint offsetting the dark reddish green of Orange Mint. Like all mints, Banana Mint, should be confined to a pot. Mints grow better in pots with lots of surface area rather than lots of depth. Mint grows so rapidly that it will need to be divided and repotted with fresh soil each spring. To learn more about dividing and repotting mint be sure to visit this page.
	This really should be a scratch and sniff picture. At first you are not quite sure it is Banana and then it hits your olfactory and, wow, pure Banana!!!
