either my sniffer is messed up or some of the hybrid mints dont smell or taste like their names. i recently got an order from fragrant fields which the plants were awesome! i cant say enough good about them! the plants arrived with not a bit of soil misplaced and the mints were well hydrated and not wilted like all the other mints i have gotten from other places. i ordered ...

banana mint which does smell like ripe bananas love this one!!!! cant wait to share this one!!!

jessie's sweet pear mint - can't smell a lick of pear

jim's candy lemon lime- can't smell a lick other than a strong normal mint smell

these i got from a dg member
grapefruit- smells heavenly very good citrus smell
chocolate mint- just like jr mints yummy
apple mint- not like apple at all dont like the fuzzy leaves on this one lol
orange mint- smelled great when i got it ...was a small start and died : (

any advise or your views on the different mints are appreciated. i want to order the mixed berry mint but wonder if it actually smells like berries.
