Then look no further than the Common Mint! This herb not only has a wonderful, refreshing mint flavor, but it can also be used to add a surprising zing to savory dishes like meats, stews, and vegetable fritters. Plus, the tiny flowers are loved by bees, making it a great plant for supporting your local pollinators.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGROWING INSTRUCTIONS\u003cbr\u003eTransplant (recommended): Start 6-8 weeks before setting out in early spring; young plants can withstand some freezing. Sow seeds on top of the growing medium, gently pressing them into the soil mix. Do not cover, as the seeds require light to germinate. Keep moist and germinate at a temperature of 55-65°F. Transplant seedlings into individual containers when the first true leaves appear in full sun to partial shade. Pinch off the top sets of leaves regularly starting at the seedling stage for a bushier, healthier plant. When 3-4\" tall, transplant outside, spacing plants 12-18\" apart in rows 18\" apart. Since mint spreads quickly, choose location carefully, possibly with a growth barrier. Water deeply once in a while, rather than watering the plants lightly more often. To prevent the spread of leaf diseases, water the soil and not the foliage. Cut back the plants to the ground before winter. This will make for healthier, more prolific plants the following year.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSHIPPING\u003cbr\u003eWe try to get all orders out the day of purchase, but processing time can run 1-3 days depending on volume.
