Chocolate Scented Mint Starter Plant

This mint plant has an excellent fragrance. I have it planted around the yard and I like to cut some stem branches and strew them on the grass just before mowing. Mowing the branches fills the air with fragrant chocolate mint smells.

First, the box was crushed and open. The single piece of newspaper that was supposed to hold the plant stable didn’t work and all the soil in the pot was knocked out. The plant was very dry and stressed, only one long tendril.The photo is after I put it in a container with fresh damp potting soil.I should have purchased one from a local nursery.Update October- the plant still died.

This arrived in perfect condition. The soil was moist in the plant looked very healthy.. When I smelled it, it did not smell like chocolate at all, though. It could be the fact that it’s been in the box traveling. I’m gonna put it out of four of a five for now due to not smelling like chocolate mint. I’ve got a few mints. Orange mint being my most favorite. So I know how they are suppose to smell. Like I said tho. I think it might of just been it being in the box. The mint over powering the smell of the chocolate. We’ll see. I’ll follow up. My mom said it smelled like spearmint not chocolate mint.

I sent this to someone as a gift. It arrived healthy and not damaged in any way. Was packaged well from what I was told by the person I sent it to.

Have no video to add!!

This plant is Beautiful. I started inside the house with it while waiting for warmer weather. This just spread its wings & Bloomed beautifully. I highly recommend this Beautiful plant & it smells just like chocolate. You can add a leaf to your smoothie to give it a mint chocolate taste.

Arrived dead. But kept and it eventually sprouted new leaves.

This was *not* a robust, well-grown plant when it was packaged. Then, when it finally arrived, it had been starved for light for so long that it was severely etiolated. It had transparent, rangy, and extremely thin stems with widely spaced, undersized leaves. It was not properly labeled for agricultural inspection, and very, very delicate. After a week or so in "intensive care", it is just starting to smell minty, and the chocolate scent is till absent.
