Water Mint (Mentha aquatica)
Water mint, Mentha aquatica, is a pretty spreading plant, doing well in a range of wet conditions on lower fertility soils. It smells fantastic when bruised, and like other mints its leaves can be eaten. Water mint has a long flowering period and is visited by a wide range of pollinators, particularly bees. It's also a recommended plant for Great Crested Newts.
We offer water mint as bare root or jumbo 110cc plugs, dependent on availability.
Please note that these plants are only available on a seasonal basis. The nursery grows new stock from autumn to early spring, so we do not deliver over this period.
