Frequently Asked Questions
Find helpful information about mint seed growing, harvesting, and herb garden care.
Can mint be grown from seeds, and will it grow true to its variety?
Yes, some mint species can be grown from seeds. However, different mint varieties can cross-pollinate, so seedlings may not retain all the characteristics of the parent plant. For a specific variety, check the seed supplier's identification and growing information before planting.
How do you stop mint plants from spreading throughout the garden?
Mint spreads through underground roots and above-ground runners. Growing it in pots, raised planters, or contained garden spaces helps control its spread. Regularly trim runners that extend beyond the growing area.
When is the best time to harvest mint leaves for tea?
Harvest established mint leaves regularly throughout the growing season. For drying and making flavorful herbal tea, collect healthy leaves just before the plant begins flowering. Harvesting the growing tips also encourages fresh leafy growth.
