Lime Mint is a wonderful addition to your garden, your summer meals and drinks. As with all mints, it's best to plant in containers as it can spread fast. However, if you need ground cover, mint is a great choice, since just a brush against it brings up the lovely scent.
Lime mint is what you might expect - minty and limey - although, surprisingly, the lime is stronger than the mint. This is the perfect mint for cocktails like Mojitos, Gimlets and it's great in Iced Tea. Lime mint is also a terrific addition to fish tacos and it adds a special zip to your guacamole.

Like many varieties of mint, Lime mint is often used for pest control in gardens due to its ability to attract beneficial insects such as butterflies and bees and detract harmful insects such as aphids, fleas and ants.
