Mint - Chocolate

Chocolate Mint is a delicious blend of peppermint with a hint of chocolate flavour. The bronze-coloured leaves can be harvested fresh or dried for future use in teas. t will spread by the roots, but it doesn’t always aggressively take out all other plants in its path. Plant it in a pot if you want it contained. Useful in food forests as a ground cover that will also deter rabbits and other pests.
