Peppermint is the most popular mint variety. To come into its own, this plant needs a good place. Preferably in full sun or half-shadow. Once settled, this plant will grow at full speed.
Peppermint is quite dominant and can therefore overgrow other plants; which would be a shame! Preferably plant this herb in a pot.
Full sun or sun with occasional shade.
Water this herb regularly and make sure it does not get too dry. Fortunately, it can take a beating!
Peppermint lives well in different kinds of soil but is especially a fan of alkaline soil. Fertilising with extra nutrients can do no harm.
Prune out overgrown branches during the summer to make room for new flowering.
