Most mints are easy to grow, sometimes notoriously so, and highly resistant to pests and diseases, which adds to their garden value. Written in a friendly and accessible style, the book features chapters on history and lore, modern uses, cultivation, and distinctive characteristics and classification; a catalog of species and cultivars in 67 genera; and a glossary.

Editorial Reviews

With some of its illustrations from the rare book collections of the Missouri Botanical Garden, at which the author served as editor/ publications manager, this book aims to be the first to comprehensively survey the entire Lamiaceae/Labiatae family. Lawton presents mints in history and lore, health and home, as weeds, their pests and diseases, botany, and a catalog of many genera. Includes line drawings, color plates, and a glossary.
