Egyptian Mint

Egyptian Mint is a perennial mint that grows up to 3 feet (1 metre) tall.

It has large, fuzzy light-green leaves, and blossoms with light-purple flowers.

It has a milder mint flavour and aroma than many other mints. Good for Middle Eastern recipes, which presuppose this kind of mint, rather than the strong mints of Northern Europe.
