Creeping Corsican Mint Seeds - Herbal Plant

Creeping Corsican Mint seeds produce a very low growing perennial herb known for its dense spreading habit and small aromatic foliage. This plant forms a tight mat across the soil surface and is commonly used as groundcover in shaded gardens, between stepping stones, and along pathways. It prefers cool, moist environments and grows best in partially shaded locations where soil remains consistently damp. During suitable conditions, it may produce tiny pale flowers above the foliage while maintaining a uniform green carpet effect.
