Some Americans have talked about chocolate mint. Can anyone tell me what
the botanic name is, please?

HTH HAND now

Do they mean a mint or possibly the chocolate mint scented leaf
pelargonium?


I have some and as far as I can tell it is definitely a mint and it
definitely has more than a hint of the After Eight about it. From its
general appearance I would guess it is a cultivar of peppermint as
some others have already suggested, although the leaves have darker
veins and it seems to be rather less vigorous than common-or-garden
varieties.
