  • FLAVOUR -The 'Chocolate' cultivar has the aroma of chocolate, but the taste in foods more closely resembles the orange citrus flavour of the citrate form of mint.

  • WET AREAS - In cooking, chocolate can be used for flavouring desserts and drinks. In landscapes, it is often naturalized as a ground cover in moist areas or planted in rain gardens.

  • AFTER EIGHTS - This pretty dark leafed mint smells like 'After Eights' and great for chocolate lovers.

  • PLANT SIZE - This plant arrives in a 14cm pot ready to plant or keep at a window ledge in your home.

  • Plant genus Mentha

    Watering Keep the soil consistently moist while the crop is establishing and growing, especially during flowering, fruiting or rapid leafy growth. Water deeply at the base rather than little and often, allowing excess water to drain away. Plants in containers, grow bags or greenhouses may need daily checks during warm weather.

    Best Growing Conditions Grow in partial shade to gentle sun in fertile loam, enriched with organic matter where appropriate. Choose an open position with good airflow and enough space for the crop to mature without excessive competition. Protect tender crops from late frost and cold winds, and use greenhouse or sheltered growing conditions where the variety requires extra warmth.

    Top tip

    Harvest little and often to encourage fresh, bushy growth rather than allowing the plant to become overly woody or congested. In colder parts of the UK, give it a sheltered position and provide winter protection during prolonged frost.
