Product Description

Apple mint is also known as wooly mint or white mint. This plant is found in the wild in South and West Europe and also in our country. But this rare plant is protected and it can't be picked or taken out of nature. This mint variety has a strong, fruity flavour which remindes us of apples. The leaves are very coarse and hairy. Cooke the leaves short before using them raw, because the hairs are not very nice in the mouth and on the tongue.

Use apple mint in sweet dishes because of it's scent and flavour. Use in pancakes, soups, sauces and herbal teas. Use the leaves of apple mint in the summer to make a very cooling and refreshing tea or ice tea. You can also make a medicinal tea against inflamed gums from the leaves of Apple Mint. Apple mint flowers with little, light pink flowers from july till october. This variety is like all mint varieties an overgrowing and overpowering herb. Keep the roots restricted to prevent this from happening. Non decidious hardy perennial. Height: 40 - 80 cm.
