Description
Discover the enchanting character of Bradboorn Have Water Mint, a striking and aromatic variety hailing from heritage gardens in the Netherlands. Celebrated for its vigorous growth and multi-layered flavour, this cultivar of Mentha aquatica combines adaptability with ornamental flair, making it a prized addition to both decorative and culinary gardens.
The broad, textured leaves release a deep, earthy mint fragrance, perfect for teas, herbal infusions, and garden borders. Its foliage, with a subtle purple blush, adds a touch of wild elegance to damp areas or container displays.
However, as with all water mint varieties, caution is essential when harvesting from wild or untreated sources. Natural populations may host a water snail that carries a liver fluke parasite, posing a risk to humans and livestock. To enjoy this variety safely in the kitchen, ensure it’s grown in clean, managed conditions—where its full flavour and beauty can be appreciated without concern.
