Product Description

Also known as Mayan mint or Honeyherb, Aztec Sweetherb originates from Mexico, where it is traditionally used as a sweetener for many recipes. This is an aromatic herb that should be much more widely grown for both its ornamental and herbal value. The intensely sweet leaves are green with purple tinting, and in summer small white flowers give added interest. Perfect for growing in pots or hanging baskets. Use in hot and cold drinks and desserts as a sugar alternative. Keep frost free in winter.
