TENDER LOVING CARE
Chocolate mint thrives in full sun to partial shade. If grown indoors, place it near a bright window with indirect light.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top layer of soil feels dry.
Regularly trim stems to promote bushy growth and prevent legginess. Mint spreads quickly, so growing it in a container can help control its growth.
Chocolate mint is a hardy perennial that can be grown in pots or garden beds. It can tolerate cooler temperatures but should be brought indoors if extreme cold is expected.
