Scotchmint is a fascinating sterile hybrid that is created when Mentha arvensis (Cornmint) and Mentha spicata (Spearmint) are crossbred. It is also known by the names Gingermint and Red Mint.
If you are a connoisseur of minty scents, then Scotchmint is sure to impress you with its delightful aroma. It is a perfect blend of sweet mint and piney freshness, which is due to its Spearmint lineage. The aroma is absolutely refreshing and invigorating, making it a popular choice for aromatherapy enthusiasts.
However, cultivating Scotchmint is not an easy task, as it is a sterile hybrid that can only be grown using clones. Nonetheless, the effort is worth it, as the resulting aroma is simply unmatched by any other mint variety.
