Chocolate Mint

Chocolate mint plants (Mentha x piperita 'Chocolate') are attractive, fragrant and easy to grow. As with most square-stemmed members of the mint family, growing chocolate mint can take over the area in which it is planted in the ground, readily and quickly making it ideal for ground cover or for containers.

Suggestions: Mint has a tendency to overpower the garden if not kept in check. Cut the bottom from a container, place the container in a hole in the garden, fill with soil and plant the mint inside the container.
