  • Mint seeds or cutting

    Hi all,
    I was wondering if anyone had some mint seeds or a cutting they could sent to me, spending loads on peppermint tea when i could make my own lol. I have various seeds i could send in return so if you let me know what you are looking for and i'll let you know if i have any

    many thanks

    The stuff grows like weeds, a little piece off the side with a root will be away in no time. Never tried seeds.

    I've got two sorts here, no idea if they are suitable for peppermint tea. One has got round-ish leaves which are grey-green, and is the sort that you might use for boiling spuds. And the other has darker pointy leaves and I think may be spearmint.

    PM me your address if you want some bits of each, or I can take a photo if anyone can identify them better.

        Threw a load of mint away last weekend when I split one of my clumps - as said above, grows like weed when you get it going!

        Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

        Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

              The Black Mint is a strong mint, the pineapple mint smells like pineapple, have not done anything with this one, it has very pretty variegated leaves.

                    sorry i only have the cuttings that were sent to me, don't think i could cut them and send again, don't think they would survive. if you put a thread out there called mint for my brother or something you would get a reply pretty quick
