Herb Mentha Corsican, also known as Mentha x Requienii, is a perennial herb mint native to Corsica, Italy, and Sardinia. This unique mint variety offers tiny leaves that reach less than 1" tall and spread indefinitely with a dense, mat-forming habit. Minute lilac flowers appear on dark green foliage in June-August. Herb Mentha Corsican is hardy in zones 7-11 but self-seeds, making it a groundcover that lasts for many years, even in colder regions. Attractive foliage works well in rock gardens, containers, fairy gardens, and between stepping stones. This unique Mint flourishes in full or partial sun with plenty of water and excels in containers. Corsican is an irreplaceable addition to the landscape, bringing a new layer of ornamental foliage and flavor to summer teas and garnishes.
Herb Mentha Corsican Selling Tips
Sell Herb Mentha Corsican to customers looking for a low-maintenance, fragrant groundcover or a unique mint variety to add to the herb garden. This variety is tiny, forming a wide, low carpet. It is hardy zone 7-11 and self-seeds even in colder regions. While it can become slightly invasive, this mint's shallow roots are easy to remove to control spread. It requires little more than regular water to succeed in a container or landscape. Customers will love the soft, aromatic foliage as a groundcover or between stepping stones. This plant also flourishes in the herb or rock garden and makes an adorable garnish and tasty tea.
Coach Your Customer
1. Plant mint in well-drained soil in full sun or part shade.
2. If you choose to plant mint in the garden or landscape, prevent it from spreading by planting it in a container first and then burying the container. Mint spreads aggressively underground via rhizomes. This variety is less hardy and easier to control than most mints.
3. Mint foliage offers the best fragrance and flavor before the plant blooms. Dry or freeze leaves to preserve them for later use.
General Growing Tips For Your Rooted Cutting Liner
For best results with Herb Mentha Corsican, plant one rooted liner per 4-inch container. Use a well-drained soil with a constant feed program of 150-200 ppm N on well-rooted plants and a pH of 5.8-6.2. We recommend an additional iron supplement to deepen the foliage color. Pinch once 5-10 days after transplant. You may see whiteflies, aphids, and mealybugs. This plant isn't prone to disease, but root rot can develop in overly wet conditions.
Flowering
Lilac flowers bloom in June-August.
Pinching
Pinch once, 5-10 days after transplanting.
Spacing
Space containers for adequate airflow and sunlight penetration around the base of each plant. We don't recommend planting Mint in 1801s, as this plant will get leggy and develop fungus without enough space.
Height Control
We don't recommend using chemical growth regulators on herbs.
Pests
You may see whiteflies, aphids, and mealybugs.
Disease
Herb Mentha Corsican isn't prone to disease, but root rot or botrytis can develop in overly moist conditions. Take these steps to prevent infection: water in the morning and allow the plant to dry out between waterings; provide good airflow in your greenhouse; space plants so the sun can penetrate to the soil level. To best fight root rot in herbs, use a garden-safe fungicide, like Neem Oil.
Planting Herb Mentha Corsican Liners
We recommend planting one rooted plug per 4-inch container. Use a well-drained soil and completely bury the ellepot in the center of the container.
Rooted Cuttings
Cuttings vary in size between different plant families. These rooted starter plants will arrive ready to be transplanted in to your final container. If they are to be used in a landscape application, you will need to establish them in a 4 inch pot or an 1801 before planting outside.

Before we take this relationship any further...
It looks like this is the first time you've added anything to your cart.
We just wanted to remind you that we are a wholesale starter plant company that sells to businesses, schools, clubs, and other non-profits. State law dictates that you must be growing for resale to order from us since we are not collecting sales tax.
If we aren't a match, we understand. It's not you, it's us.
We would look awful in orange jumpsuits.
