I would like to try filling in my garden with some variosu types of mints...hyssop, reg. mint, lemon balm...anything that is eay to grow in the family...let me know what you want in return. I can get some cuttings from my neighbours: a current/beryr of some sort, rose of sharon, japanese spirea, lilac, clematis, or some (what I believe is) Pruniatum Blue Sedum

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant. Mary Ann LaPensee

Kenny,

I have some spearmint[it's either that or peppermint, I think spearmint though] plants growing... I don't know how to send/collect/whatever cuttings/rooted plants, but if you want to wait a couple of weeds for it to seed, I can send a bunch of seeds.. lol

Let me know..

Mark, bruise a leaf of each mint-the peppermint will smell like a candy cane tastes, and the spearmint will smell like toothpaste.

hey guys, mint doesn't always come true to seed, it likes to pollinate with about anything else, so best to send cuttings...
