The aroma of mint will make you close your eyes as your thoughts drift to a summer day. Mint not only enhances iced tea and mixed drinks, it is also a wonderful surprise flavor in savory dishes, including meats, stews, and vegetable fritters. Tiny flowers are loved by bees.

    Maybe Faulty Batch?

    Ordered 6 different types of seeds and all grew amazingly well, so I was disappointed that the mint seeds were the only ones that didn’t bloom! I’ve tried about 4 times now, each with a different number of seeds. Funny considering everyone says mint won’t stop growing!

    I'm an introvert so it's difficult for me to leave a comment.

    I do enjoy doing business with you because you are trustworthy and dependable.

    Thank you!
