All good things come in threes
This proverb certainly applies here, because with your three garden mints, you'll have the perfect mint flavor for every occasion. While the delicious mint enhances your food and drinks, bees will appreciate the food source in the form of its panicle-like flowers. To ensure these bloom beautifully in white-pink or delicate violet, you should give your garden mints a light dose of herb fertilizer in spring. Regular harvesting of the leaves encourages good branching. Plant your garden mint sets in small pots or balcony boxes, for example, and choose a sunny to partially shaded location. Use potting soil specifically for herbs in the container; otherwise, your garden mint prefers well-draining, humus-rich garden soil. You'll benefit from the bountiful harvest not only in spring, as all three garden mint varieties can be easily dried and stored for winter. This way, you're just as prepared for cozy evenings with hot peppermint tea as you are for cocktails at a garden party. Your delicious garden mint set is a true all-rounder and gives your drinks, salads, and desserts the perfect finishing touch.
