Description	Mentha Peppermint, All types of mint are vigorous, fast growing, spreading perennials. You need to plant them where they have room to spread or plant them in pots. Mint plants send out runners just above and below the ground level, quickly forming large lush green patches. Planted in the right spot they make fantastic ground covers. Mint can grow anything up to 1m tall, but require regular trimming to ensure nice bushy, healthy plants. Although mint is hardy and will adapt to almost any spot in your garden, it prefers cool damp conditions in partial shade. Mints make good companion plants, repelling unwanted pests and attracting beneficial ones. This little herb is a probably one of the most commonly mint used in the kitchen, with its fresh peppermint flavour. It's leaves can be used to make apple mint jelly, as well as for flavouring cous cous, and rice dishes. You can make a fresh Mint tea, or use it as a garnish, or in salads. Use the leaves fresh or dried, or you can freeze them in ice cube trays. 4" pot size.	Phoenix roebelenii 'Pygmy Date Palm' Date Palms feature an interesting, classic palm trunk that forms and grows larger as it matures. They have a crown of elegant dark green lacy fronds cascading from the top of this. A mature Date Palm will reach 2-3 meters tall. Old, dead fronds are best pruned off to expose the trunk as the tree ages and to keep it neat. The Date Palm is another good plant for creating a tropical feel in the garden which does well down South.
