Mentha Longifolia Var. Flaccida

Mentha longifolia var. flaccida is a lesser-known member of the mint family known for its unique appearance and subtle fragrance. This variant of the common mint is characterized by its soft, drooping leaves and pale green coloration. Unlike its more vigorous relatives, it thrives in shaded, moist environments and is often found in woodland areas. Its delicate form makes it a popular choice for ornamental gardening and herbal use. Despite its modest size, it holds cultural and medicinal significance in various traditions.
