Mint, Mojito
Mentha x villosa
Description: Mojito Mint is a fragrant, fast-growing perennial herb prized for its bright green, slightly crinkled leaves and refreshing citrusy-mint aroma. Unlike common spearmint, Mojito Mint has a milder, smoother flavor with subtle lime undertones, making it the authentic choice for crafting the perfect mojito. Its lush foliage and delicate lavender blooms make it a beautiful and functional addition to herb gardens, containers, and borders.
Wildlife Benefits: The nectar-rich flowers of Mojito Mint attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators, supporting a vibrant and healthy garden ecosystem.
Medicinal Benefits: Traditionally used for digestion and relaxation, Mojito Mint is known for its soothing effects on the stomach and its ability to relieve nausea and headaches. Its fresh or dried leaves can be brewed into teas, infused into oils, or used in homemade remedies.
Native Status: Native to Cuba, Mojito Mint thrives in warm climates and grows exceptionally well in Georgia’s long growing season.
Pollinator Friendliness: Bees and butterflies love Mojito Mint’s blooms, making it a great choice for pollinator-friendly gardens.
Planting Guidelines:
Height: 12–24 inches
Spacing: 12–18 inches
Sun/Shade: Prefers Full Sun to Partial Shade
How to Grow: Mojito Mint thrives in moist, well-draining soil and requires regular watering to maintain its lush growth. As a vigorous spreader, it’s best grown in containers or controlled garden spaces to prevent it from taking over. Regularly harvesting leaves encourages bushier growth and prolongs the season’s fresh supply.
Add fresh, authentic flavor to your drinks and dishes with Mojito Mint—a refreshing, easy-to-grow herb that’s as delicious as it is pollinator-friendly.
