We had a lovely visit from Kenny @mint_aholic today, he has a fantastic collection of mints and i was lucky enough to receive 12 new mints to add to my collection, including a very interesting black stemmed mint!

🌱This is the lovely Mentha Jack's Green, discovered in the garden of @SalisburyCath in the 1970s by the then mason. Does anyone at Salisbury cathedral have any more information on Jack Green?, 🌱

HM The Queen was a keen gardener with an active interest in horticulture. We send deepest condolences to her family. She will be missed 💔

Very proud of the work my husband Paul puts into the shows, he is an excellent grower! This is his stand at this week's @FOTS50, I may be biased but it was definitely 'Best in show' for Mnp Flowers

[MadAboutMint @MadAboutMints]

@SowMeGrowMe Mints are much better in pots, but give them a feed regularly for great plants 🌱😊

[MadAboutMint @MadAboutMints]

Go Paul, very proud ❤️

Paul Jackson is nominated for Pat Coutts Award for excellence. 'Paul has had a significant impact on the industry over the years...Probably all bedding plant growers & most of the retailers have been helped in some way by Paul's work..'
Well done Paul #fots50 #horticulture

[Val Bradley @valgardening]

A very worthy nominee & would be a worthy winner. One of many unsung heroes of the horticultural industry, working away to ensure the plants in our gardens are the very best.
Good luck, Paul! 🤞

🌱Jessica's Sweet Pear is one of several Mints bred by Jim Westerfield, most of his mints named with female names, I also keep Hilarys Sweet Lemon & Julia's Sweet Citrus 🌱https://t.co/3IEoG6KSSZ
