Collection of 5 mint plants

<p style="text-align: justify">Mint is not difficult to grow, <strong>it grows and spreads easily</strong> in the vegetable garden, which is both its main quality and its main drawback! Indeed, <strong>mint tends to become invasive</strong>, especially if the soil and exposure suit it. However, not all species are equally colonising: the deer mint, for example, behaves more modestly!</p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span class="attr">Easy to grow, mint is also known for <strong>attracting beneficial insects</strong> and <strong>dissuading unwanted insects</strong> from the garden, such as aphids, ants, and certain rodents. In my garden, I grow it under my fruit trees, and during flowering, I can observe many beneficial insects like hoverflies, tachinid flies, etc...</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify">The species and varieties of mint are numerous and each offers different scents and uses. Among the most common in cultivation, we distinguish <strong>peppermints</strong>, <strong>spearmints</strong>, and <strong>round-leaved mints</strong>.</p> <p style="text-align: justify">In cooking, the use of <strong>fresh mint</strong> is quite uncommon, yet it can enhance the flavour and freshness of many dishes, from tabbouleh to chocolate mousse! Mint harvested at the right time and then dried is also a true delight in the heart of winter!</p>
