So many varieties to choose from.
I have been buying from Outsidepride for 4 years. I always receive my orders in a timely manner. Their site is very descriptive and informative for every seed available. My first purchases were mini clover and grasses for a home/DIY landscaping job. I am now in a different home and plant zone and I am starting from scratch. My recent purchase are ground covers for DIY flagstone areas and flowers I saw recommended on Instagram, Zinnias, Chives, Corsican mint, French Marigold and Lemon basil. I am not ready to plant yet but I am excited to get started.

I love that this is a local company! Your selection is vast, website and ordering is easy, seed and delivery prices are so reasonable for the amount and quality of seed. I have had much success with the prior plants and first batch of Miniclover sowed (so I bought more). I keep adding Corsican mint over bare patches. Can’t wait to see how the snow-in-summer does! One wishlist item: wooly thyme (it’s a wonderful ground cover too, but I never see it offered anywhere in seed). Thanks! Will buy again!

Corsican Mini Ornamental Mint (Mentha requienii) - Corsican mint is a spreading, ground-hugging plant only growing 1 - 2 inches high with petite, round leaves that emit a powerful, minty aroma. Also known as creeping mint, it spreads up to 1 foot wide by narrow stems that take root as they grow. Corsican mint can be somewhat finicky, especially when it comes to irrigation. These plants don’t tolerate drought, which means the soil should be kept consistently moist but not soggy.
