Mentha spicata var. crispa ‘Moroccan’ – Moroccan Mint
Mentha ‘Moroccan’ is a fragrant and vigorous hardy herb, highly valued for its fresh aromatic foliage and excellent culinary uses. The bright green leaves release a strong, refreshing scent when touched and are widely used for teas, summer drinks, desserts, and savoury dishes. Fast growing and easy to maintain, it is a useful addition to gardens, patios, and kitchen growing spaces.
Reaching around 40–60 cm in height with a spreading habit, this leafy perennial forms dense clumps of upright stems covered in textured green foliage. In summer, small lilac-pink flowers may appear, adding ornamental value while attracting bees and other pollinators.
The fresh leaves can be picked regularly throughout the growing season and are best used young for the strongest flavour. Mentha ‘Moroccan’ is ideal for growing in containers, raised beds, herb gardens, or tucked into sunny borders where its scent can be enjoyed close at hand.
This hardy herb thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, fertile soil. Mint is vigorous and can spread quickly in open ground, so container growing is often recommended to keep it controlled. Regular harvesting encourages fresh new growth and keeps plants productive.
Flowering Period
Spring: Fresh aromatic foliage emerges strongly from the base
Summer: Small lilac-pink flowers appear above leafy stems
Spring – Autumn: Leaves can be harvested continuously for culinary use
With its refreshing fragrance, rapid growth, and versatility in the kitchen, Mentha ‘Moroccan’ is an excellent low-maintenance herb for pots, patios, and productive gardens.
