Excellent I'll check mine as well, I'm sure I've got more varieties than I've listed.

My mints are still appearing too. The bad news is - the labels aren't
So sorry, SP, I have nothing reliable to swap as I've never been able to tell basil mint from the other perfumey ones.
Glad your banana mint is alive and well

[Small pumpkin]

That's alright VC
if I'm honest I probably don't need any more varieties. I don't know what to do with the ones I've got!

I "think" from now on, I'll keep a mother herb plant in a bucket with the name painted on it and only plant out its offspring in the garden as I seem to lose track of them when I let them roam.
Maybe I need a Herb Bucket garden...............wanders off, thinking................

That's good news SP I lost one of my mints last year really ought to look into replacing it.

My banana mint never seems to survive the winter. I bring it in the house too.

Flavoured Mint

I saw some "flavoured" mints on Tony Robinsons Coast to Coast programme recently when he met a commercial herb grower. I would love to know where I can get my hands on some. Especially the chocolate and pineapple ones.

Here you go, one of the many places that you can get it.

Its only taken 15 months but I've found Basil mint's label!! I cut back some other stuff and there it was, in the middle of the mint. If you still want a cutting, SP, just ask.

[Small pumpkin]

I'd love some VC thank you.
Can I swap with some cuttings from any of these?
Apple
Strawberry
Lemon
Lime
Chocolate
Banana
Moroccan

I have Apple but any of the others would be great. I have a couple of other mints too but I'm not sure of their names. One I grew from a cutting given to me a lady on Skopelos - so I call it "Skopelos Mint". Original, no?? Its a perfumed mint - maybe Eau de cologne -ish.
I'll have another look for labels tomorrow.
