We’re bringing:
- Common Ninebark
- Black Chokeberry
- Lemon Balm
- Hoary Mountain Mint
- Dappled Willow
- Carolina Allspice
- Variegated grasses
- Spearmint
- Goji Berry
To a market we haven’t been to as vendors before. A friend who is a baker recommended that we attend since it gets more foot traffic than the other markets she and I had been in last year. Wish me luck!
I have not heard of Hoary Mountain Mint. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pycnanthemum_incanum
“When crushed, the leaves emit a strong minty aroma, and are often used to flavor teas.”
Sounds nice I wonder if the flavour is closer to Spearmint or peppermint?
Also Good Luck!
Reporting back: still spearmint but more intensely spearmint than my spearmint, and the flavor stays longer than true spearmint. P. tenuifolium is also spearminty but those are in pots and not soil.
Nice I have also heard if you keep different types of mint near each other it can change the flavour of the mint.
