Details

A solid flat mat of tiny rounded leaves. The leaves smell like mint when the are gently rubbed. 

Give this plant good drainage, part shade or dappled shade with evenly damp soil and it will spread its loveliness gently through the miniature garden.

As far as my experience, the only relation to regular mint plants is the name. It's not invasive nor as tough as the edible mint plants for the full-size garden but can invade if left to grow - which sometimes is just perfect in the miniature garden. It's not edible. 

Can be grown indoors with bright indirect light and regular water. Let the soil dry out in between watering sessions to avoid overwatering.
