Plant Features
Orange Mint offers a unique citrus fragrance and flavor like the tropical fruit bergamot. It is often used in mint jellies and sauces, herbal teas, and mint vinegar. Mint is easy to grow and does well in full to part sun locations with moist soil. Plants can be aggressive if planted in the soil. They do great in containers. Pollinators love the flowers. It can be grown indoors within a few feet of a east, south, or west facing window. Indoor plants should be watered just as the potting mix starts to dry.
