Notes

'Mint Prince' spearmint (Mentha 'Mint Prince') is an herb for pollinator gardens, containers, and ground cover. This plant likes full or part sun and average to wet, loamy or clay soil. It is fragrant, and bees visit its flowers from early to late summer. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. Mint can spread fast, so you may want to grow it in a container to keep it in bounds.

Pairs well with Cornflower, Jackmanii clematis, and Casa Blanca lily.
