Corsican Mint is the smallest mint, Mentha requienii, creeping low with deeply scented leaves and tiny purple flowers.
Sow on the surface and do not cover, as the seed needs light to sprout. Sprouts in 7-14 days at 65-70ºF soil. Start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost, then plant outside after frost 4-6 inches apart.
