Indian mint


Indian mint (satureja douglasii)

Leaves can be used for tea and the label says as a medicinal herb. It smells very nice.

Have you tried Indian mint tea? Sounds nice. Love the smell of mint in the garden - that and the smell of basil!

Indians use just milk to make their tea like we would make milky coffee, and have it very sweet too.

Hb, I bought a couple of these plants today for manger troughs. Having seen pics of them on-line they appear to grow quite big! Can you tell me how big your one grew?
