When we went out for our usual morning walk up to the
fuente and back, I noticed that the land to the side of the path which is always covered with mint is now all in flower. That
bancal is about 1 metre lower than the footpath but the mint is so tall it's now level! There are at least 3 types of mint, 1 with quite bushy lavender coloured flowers, 1 with slim blooms and much paler in colour but both with green leaves and the third type grows in the running water and has very dark green almost purple leaves. The green leaf mints have a slightly hairy feel while the purpley leaf one is very smooth and has a different flavour.
