Strawberry Mint is grown for its scent as much as its flavor. The bright green, softly wrinkled leaves smell lightly of strawberries when brushed or cut, making it popular for teas, drinks, and fresh garnishes.

This mint grows quickly and forms a full, leafy mound. It does well in containers, raised beds, or the ground, but like all mints it spreads by underground runners—so pots are best if you want to keep it contained. Leaves are best used fresh for the brightest flavor, but they also dry well for tea blends.

It’s easy, productive, and fun to grow—especially if you like edible plants that offer something a little different.

What to Expect With Your Plants

What size plants will I receive?

Most plants ship in 2 3/8” x 3 3/4” band pots—ideal for healthy root growth.

Top growth varies by variety and season, but every plant arrives well-rooted, actively growing, and ready to plant.

Grown naturally without artificial heat or lights, our plants are hardy, adaptable, and ready to thrive in real garden conditions.

When will my plants ship?

We schedule plant orders based on your area’s average last frost date and when each plant is truly ready to ship. You’ll receive an email with your estimated ship date once your order is scheduled.

Orders ship Monday–Wednesday via UPS or USPS (2–3 day service), so your plants arrive before the weekend and spend less time in transit. Shipping begins in spring—usually mid-April—when weather and plant health align, so your plants arrive strong, well-rooted, and ready to thrive.

Do you guarantee your plants?

We stand behind our plants and our packing process. While we can't control weather or how plants are cared for after arrival, we do guarantee that your plants will arrive healthy and in good condition. If there's an issue, just reach out and we're happy to help.
