About Mint Seeds - Corsican Mini Mint

Mentha requienii

Seed Type Open Pollinated Seed

Also known as Creeping Mint, Corsican Mini Mint is an extremely low-growing ground hugger. With each plant spreading to about a foot wide, its rounded, petite leaves evoke the look of Soleirolia soleirolii, Baby Tears. Corsican Mini Mint tolerates full or partial sunlight as long as the soil remains moist, but well-draining. Consider planting Mini Mint between and around stepping stones, where it can tolerate light foot traffic and will emit a wonderful minty aroma when bruised.
