Tray Dryer

This is the technology of choice in new plants, but can also be used to replace aging equipment in existing plants where they can usually produce some combination of more production, better consistency, better quality and lower emissions.

Flowers all summer long. Intensely fragrant pure white-flowering lavender.

Noted for soothing irritations and inflammations of the skin, throat, eyes, lungs and urinary organs.

Of particular interest to diabetics. Sweet, anise-scented leaves and stalks (fresh or dried) add delightful flavour to sweets and desserts, saving about half the sugar.

Remove flowering tops as they appear to keep leaves tender. Blonde de Lyon is the standard variety esteemed in France. Most famous for sorrel soup. Large, succulent, slightly acid-tasting leaves give zest to salads and any dish which is insipid in itself.

Neat compact growth habit. Absolutely delightful lemon scent.

This is a completely different mint with a completely different role in the kitchen -- as a fresh salad green! The young leaves are tender and the flavour is mild, sweet and delicate, not at all like other stronger mints that can easily overpower.

Does not attract cats despite its stronger, more pleasant scent. Excellent for massing, as ground cover or in rockeries. (Catmint) Smaller ornamental form of catnip with lavender-blue flowers and grey-white foliage.

Also for ceremonial smudging. Used by Amerindians for diarrhea; also for headaches, stomachache, menstrual problems. Lovely white ghost-like flowers; attractive silver foliage; excellent for dried arrangements.

Interestingly, the sweet lime aroma of fresh-cut leaves actually gets stronger when stored overnight. Anywhere where you need to create a new sensation. Richters holds exclusive propagation rights in Canada.

Plant it in containers, or bottomless buckets sunk into the garden bed to control its tendency to roam. Like most mints, applemint can threaten the garden with too much of a good thing, and in its optimum growing conditions of part shade and moist soil...

A favourite among West Indians. Deserving of experimentation in tea, cooking, and as a garnish. Sensational orange scent and flavour.

Small deep green leaves. Excellent lime scent.

Fabulous pineapple scent. Pinch to keep bushy. Brilliant red flowers. Grow indoors in good light. Use for drinks, chicken, cheese and in jams and jellies.

Velvety, purple streaked leaves. Strong minty scent that some noses swear has a hint of chocolate.

Upright growth habit; prolific bloomer. Lovely pink-flowered version of ‘Majorca'.

Showy dark blue flowers; upright to trailing growing habit.

Prefers filtered light but can tolerate full sun. Reaches 1-1.3m/40-50”, but can be grown in hanging baskets. Looks and grows much like pineapple sage but has a stunning honeydew melon scent.

Helps calm the entire nervous system. Strengthens the heart and often prescribed for palpitations. Especially valuable for PMS, menstrual pain and delayed menstruation. Gentle sedative.
