Eau de Cologne Mint (Mentha x piperita f. citrata Eau de Cologne) is an aromatic delight, celebrated for its unique citrus-scented foliage that resembles orange or bergamot. Its dark green, ovate leaves often carry a subtle purple hue, adding ornamental value to its incredible fragrance. In late summer, it produces dense spikes of pale lavender flowers that are a favorite for bees and butterflies.

This organic specialty mint is a vigorous and hardy perennial that thrives in sunny to partially shaded garden spots. Because of its distinct perfume-like aroma, it is a professional-grade choice for sensory gardens, aromatic potpourri, and culinary use in teas or summer beverages. It features a mounded, spreading habit that makes it an excellent filler for herb containers or as a fragrant groundcover in confined areas. You will receive a healthy 4" plant, ready to bring a gourmet scent to your kitchen or patio.

Why you’ll love it:

  • Gourmet Fragrance: Emits a sweet, citrusy mint scent that is much more refined than standard peppermint.
  • Organic Edible: Grown using organic practices, making it safe for use in cocktails, desserts, and salads.
  • Pollinator Magnet: Pale lavender flower spikes are highly attractive to bees and butterflies.
  • Ornamental Appeal: Dark green leaves with purple stems make it a beautiful addition to mixed herb pots.
  • Low Maintenance: Vigorous and easy to grow; simply harvest stems regularly to encourage fresh, bushy growth.

This 4" healthy live plant thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers consistent moisture in well-drained soil. Like most mints, it is best grown in containers to keep its vigorous spreading habit contained. To maintain its professional appearance and flavor, provide regular water and ensure it has room to expand within its pot. Eau de Cologne Mint is the ultimate choice for the gardener who wants organic, high-impact fragrance and flavor in a convenient 4" size.

We use expedited shipping policies to protect plant health and minimize plant stress in transit.  All plants are in transit for only 1-3 days. (This does not guarantee 3-day delivery as orders are not always packed and sent out on the day of your order.) We send out deliveries on a weekly schedule to ensure quick transit times, so your order may not be packaged and shipped until later in the week. For instance, we may hold shipments to avoid weekend delays that keep plants in transit for longer.

All packaging includes eco-friendly material and our shipping methods are tested regularly to ensure plants arrive healthy upon arrival.

Additionally, any delays or damages in shipping are covered by our Healthy Plant Guarantee.

If you're plants arrived damaged, we will happily replace them for free!
