Hillary's Sweet Lemon Mint

  • Flavor/Scent: Distinct citrus-mint scent with a mild, sweet flavor, less mentholated than traditional mints.

  • Appearance: Soft, silvery-green, slightly furry, pointed leaves on hairy stems, growing to around 12–24 inches tall.

  • Growth Habit: Fast-spreading, creeping perennial. Often described as an "aggressive" grower, best managed in pots or contained beds.

  • Sun/Soil: Thrives in full sun to partial shade in moist, rich, well-draining soil.

  • Blooms: Produces lavender flower spikes in mid-to-late summer that attract bees.

Growing Requirements

  • Hardiness: Generally hardy in USDA Zones 5–11.

  • Light: Thrives in full sun to partial shade.

  • Soil & Water: Prefers consistently moist, well-drained soil. It is relatively drought-tolerant once established.

  • Maintenance: Pruning back flower stalks after they bloom helps promote new leaf growth
