## Overview

Corsican Mint (Mentha requienii) is a hardy, fast-germinating herb with tiny trailing foliage, perfect for container gardening or as aromatic ground cover. Sold as multi-pelleted seeds, it’s organically certified and thrives in moderate watering and temperatures down to -5°C. Ideal for creative gardeners seeking a fragrant, low-maintenance addition that softens hardscape and enhances outdoor spaces.

## Description

Corsican mint has an unusual trailing habit and very small foliage. Ideal for growing in containers or as ground cover through cracks in paving. Used for making the drink Creme de Menthe. Quick to germinate in 5-7 days. Hardy down to -5C. Sold as multi-pellets. Sow each multiseeded pellet into individual pots or cell trays in a soil-less seed compost. Lightly cover the seeds with a thin layer of vermiculite or sieved compost and place at a temperature of 20°C. Transplant small plants into pots when large enough and grow on until ready to transplant into containers outside.

Review: Fantastic ground cover plant - I love this Corsican mint as a ground cover plant it's so easy to grow and look after. I grow it between the stones of a crazy paved path and it looks fantastic as it really softens up the edges of the path. It also gives off a lovely mint aroma as you walk along the path. I also grow it around the edge of our nature ponds mixed in with creeping thyme. The seeds germinate quickly and a little goes a long way. They are tiny seeds so mix them with some dry sand then broadcast the sand over the area where you want the mint to grow. After about a week the seeds will germinate and the mint will quickly spread to cover the whole area.
Review: Needs improvement - The first order did not arrive, took a month to get a replacement. So it was a poor experience from the start. Seeds came in with some sort of fertilizer and I was very pleased. I was surprised to learn that what looked like a single seed actually was a bunch of seeds bundled with some sort of fertilizer. However, soon I learned why... Most seeds did not sprout. some that did sprout died off in about a month. So from my experience, only about 50% of the seeds sprout, and then about 30% die off anyway. That is really unfortunate as 50 seeds are not enough to grow even 15 strong plants to be replanted in the garden.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how much corsican mint does 50 pellets grow?**
A: Very little, but once it starts growing you can separate clumps and plant them in more places to achieve a wider spread at a more rapid pace. It spreads really well once it takes. Well worth growing these, I'm really happy with mine.

**Q: What is a pelleted seed?**
A: a small seed coated for easier handling and spacing.

**Q: Can you plant the seeds directly into the garden or do you have to use a seed tray?**
A: They come as small plug plants and you are advised to plant them into separate pots and allow development before transplanting to garden area. I did this and so far all seems to be going well.

Seeds looked terrible when arrived, very powdery. Sowed as per instructions and nothing grew. Waste of money!
