Lime Mint – Mentha × piperita f. citrata ‘Lime’
Lime Mint is a zingy, citrus-scented mint that brings a fresh, fruity lift to everything from iced drinks to fruit salads. With soft green leaves and a delicious aroma that hits somewhere between lime zest and spearmint, it’s a standout choice for any herb garden. Less aggressive than some mints but still a vigorous grower, it’s ideal for growing in pots, where it can be kept in check and appreciated up close.
Here on the Isle of Wight, our mild coastal climate keeps Lime Mint lush right through summer. It’s a great addition to wildlife-friendly gardens too – its pale purple flowers are magnets for bees and other pollinators. Try it in cocktails, homemade cordials, or even muddled into a summer salsa for something a bit different.
