Ross Horsemint

Description

Embrace the hearty character of Rossminze, a traditional German variety of Horsemint, named from the old German word “Ross”, meaning horse. With its broad, robust leaves and slightly spicy, earthy aroma, this mint stands out more for its strength and presence than culinary finesse.

Hardy, adaptable, and pasture-tolerant, Rossminze is ideal for wild gardens, tough borders, or rustic planting schemes. While not prized for kitchen use, its aromatic foliage brings a bold scent to the garden, and its resilience makes it a dependable landscaping mint in challenging conditions.

For those who appreciate historic cultivars and strong-growing mints, Rossminze offers both heritage and hardiness in one rugged package.
