Why We Love It:

Moroccan mint is a must-have for any kitchen garden, especially for South London homes where space is limited but flavour matters. Known for its smooth, less sharp taste, it’s perfect for making fresh mint tea or adding to salads and drinks. Vigorous and easy to grow, it quickly fills out a pot, giving you a constant supply of aromatic leaves throughout the season.
