Notes

Julep mint. Planted 2012. Purchased from Seattle Tilth Edible Plant Sale. I doubled my plant last year by trimming a few stems and rooting them in water. I bought this mint specifically for Andy to make mint juleps. He cooks the mint into a simple syrup that he keeps on-hand in the fridge.

2014: Moved to Cobweb Cottage.
