Mint, Pineapple

Mentha suaveolens 'variegata' (Mint, Pineapple)
Mentha suaveolens 'variegata'

Pineapple mint, true to its name, has a fresh, fruity aroma which lends it well to jellies, fruit salads, and desserts. The leaves have a furrier texture than regular mint and their green and creamy white variegation looks very pretty in the garden, especially in mixed pots.

Growing Tips
Fortunately, pineapple mint does not overwhelm a garden quite as much as other types of mint. It is best to cut it back frequently nonetheless, but it's alright to plant it near other plants, especially since its lovely leaves with contrast with the different textures in the landscape.
