Amos Ziegler Posted July 16, 2019 Report Share Posted July 16, 2019 Have a homeowner trying to determine the type of Mint this is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Posted July 16, 2019 Report Share Posted July 16, 2019 Yes. Thanks! This volunteered in my raised bed garden next to my basil, marjoram, and rosemary to the point of crowding them. Wondering if it is usable and for what or if I should remove. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katie Grzesiak Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 Mints are hard! Check out https://www.michiganflora.net/genus.aspx?id=Mentha for true mints, and https://www.michiganflora.net/family.aspx?id=Lamiaceae for the whole mint family. You can also reach out to your local MSU Extension and/or Master Gardener program for help. If it does end up being something you want to keep, I'd suggest keeping it in a container to help save your other herbs. Avoid putting clippings in the compost, as this can spread the plant in your garden or in natural areas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
