Peppermint & Thyme
I wonder if Mints & Thyme can survive the tropical climate with high
humidity? Daily Temp Range: 28~32dC. Humidity: 78%. |

I don't see any reason why a mint wouldn't be able to survive those conditions, however, I am concerned that it might turn into a difficult to manage weed. It is nearly such in moist temperate climates. Some thymes might do well, others seem to prefer lower humidity. Sean ** Posted fromhttp://www.teranews.com** I tried sticking fresh mint stalks in the soil but it didn't take root. I managed to grow lavender & Cat Mint from Australia in pots but they died eventually. Lemon seems to be growing well though I doubt they will flower. The fragrant leaves are enough for cooking curries. I bought some live herbs from the supermart, i.e. Sweet Basil, Thai Queen Basil, Celery Leaves & Onion Chives. The local nurseries do sell peppermint, lemon balm, rosemary & cat mint seeds but they don't seem to germinate at all. |
