Briscoe's Tips

Mentha spicata.

Herb gardening and mint herb plants go hand and hand!

'Kentucky Colonel' Mint is by far the most delicious culinary herb, a spearmint for Mint Juleps and Mojitos! 'Kentucky Colonel Mint' is quite easy to grow, and works well indoors. It will readily make itself at home in full sun to partial shade in moist soil. Most gardeners don't have any trouble growing it, they have trouble containing it. This popular culinary herb has blooms that attract butterflies, however allowing your mint to go to flower will make the leaves taste bitter. We suggest planting two pots of mint: one for you and one for the butterflies. Plant in full to part sun. We strongly suggest planting mint in a pot or container so that it will not overtake your herb garden!
