Mojito Mint Live Plant (mentha x villosa)

Nice, healthy plant!

Plant should arrive healthy not barely alive super small with tiny leafs looking unhealthy what a joke. Going to take a few weeks just to bounce plant back in perfect conditions. If your not a seasoned grower it’s going to die on you. The packaging was a joke plant had no air plus was lose banging around in box!

I received my sprig about three years ago. I have three varieties, but only this one through Amazon. All three do well but this I use quite often during the summer for mojitos, moscow mules and other drinks. They also deter yellow jacket bees. Go figure. Anyway the plant is thriving and in the first year propagated well, but I kept in a pot as I do with my other mint. Cut back when starting to flower in the fall, but in the spring, I add a little liquid hyponex every few weeks and they take off from there. Also I water the plants in the summer every morning and they produce large leaves with great aromatic quality and taste.

I'm putting together a Caribbean herb garden and ordered this mint. I received a live, 8" healthy plant in a 4" square pot. The planting medium was moist and there was no sign of mold, mildew or insects. The plant and pot were well packaged and protected. The plant is now in the herb container garden.Very important: This is mint. Mint is very easy to grow and needs little in the way of care. But for your sanity grow it in a container. Once mint is planted in the soil it takes off like a bottle rocket and soon covers your entire garden...and it is a real chore to get ride of it. How do I know? Don't ask. :-)

Came late. Incredibly dead and moldy.

The mint was a very small ragged looking plant with black blight covering most of the leaves. I will never order form this company again!!!

You will need to be patient!!!!I like that they placed the mint plant in a small Gatorade bottle to prevent any damage during shipping. The roots were wrapped in a moist paper towel to prevent them from drying out. It just took to long to get here.The roots looked good but the plant was limp and looked beyond hope. I put the roots into good soil less than twenty minutes after arriving then put the pot in the sun. By the end of the week the plant had turned brown and shriveled up. I sat it off the porch and kind of forgot about it. About a week later a little mint twig was trying to grow. After yet another week the little guy’s looking pretty strong.

I don't usually write a review, but I am an avid reader of reviews. Any earlier review saying that product delivery was poor, I can now tell you that DayLilly made the needed changes because my plants came packaged extremely good. I've planted them and they are doing well; I shared couple plants with two friends so just in case mine didn't do well (I don't have a green thumb like they do) maybe their plantings would be prolific. I'm watching mine grow and am excited! Thanks!
