I'm on my way to get some mint plants! If I’m not too late heres a tip. Pinch off a small leaf and squeeze it a bit. Sniff it and see if it pleases you. There are a lot of cultivars to choose from sometimes. Chocolate, lemon, orange mint and the list is long. I prefer one of the most common-Spearmint. Some like the other common mint-peppermint. Too sweet smelling for me. Like sticking a candy cane in your Mai Tai Good luck!
