Narrative
We have a lovely mint from Northern Vietnam. it was the favorite mint of a family I know and furtively made it's way from Hanoi to Saigon to France to the Willamette Valley. Our friends gave us a start. it has proven as vigorous. It's attributes are relatively tender stems making it quite suitable for rice paper rolls, exceptional fragrance and all in all a good versatile mint for the kitchen. There is a mint seed sold as Vietnamese mint and that is not what we have. - Rose Marie McGee 6/10/2010
