Brundall Mint

Description

Cultivate the refreshing character of Brundall Mint, a traditional British spearmint variety renowned for its clean, mellow flavour and highly aromatic foliage. Named after the Norfolk village of Brundall, this mint has long been associated with simple, honest cooking, particularly as the quintessential accompaniment to boiled potatoes—a pairing celebrated in home kitchens and allotment plots across the UK.

Brundall Mint produces lush green, slightly crinkled leaves with a sweet spearmint scent that holds well when chopped fresh or steeped in hot water. Its gentle flavour is ideal for mint sauces, summer teas, fresh salads, and lamb dishes, but it truly shines when finely chopped and folded through steamed or buttered new potatoes, where it lifts the dish with subtle herbal brightness.

Vigorous but tidy in growth, this variety is perfect for containers, raised beds, or borders, offering a continuous harvest throughout the growing season. Hardy and reliable, Brundall Mint adds a touch of culinary heritage and timeless freshness to your garden—a humble, fragrant tribute to the comfort of seasonal British cooking.
