Vietnamese Mint

Vietnamese mint is a spreading herb with striking green foliage featuring distinct blackish v-shaped blotches, held along purple stems. It is fragrant, edible, and prolific when grown in warmer climates ( if you have hard frosts it may pay to grow in a pot to overwinter in a warm spot).

This is one of my all time favourite culinary herbs- one sniff has me dreaming of Asian fusion food at our fav restaurant in Tauranga!
