About this item SUN: Chocolate mint plants prefer partial shade. You can grow them in full sun if you water them frequently. SOIL: Just about any rich, moist soil will successfully grow chocolate mint. Very dry, sandy soils are likely to cause problems, but you can overcome this if you water frequently. WATER: Chocolate mint requires 1 to 2 inches of water each week (rain and irrigation) but does not respond well to constantly boggy conditions. If growing in a container, never let the pot dry out completely and ensure it drains well. WHEN TO PLANT: It is typically planted in the spring after the last frost has passed. PLANTING SUGGESTIONS: Chocolate mint is a vigorous plant that needs little more than a single dose of balanced fertilizer each spring.
