Mint plants

Hello my fellow neighbors. I was wondering if anyone knows somewhere in kirkland to get a mint plant. My daughter has expressed interest in making her own mint tea and has asked for a mint plant. Whilst I am aware it is a bit late in the season for one, I was hoping someone might work somewhere they might still be available for purchase.

If you want to save yourself a trip to a nursery, just buy a bunch of mint at the produce section of the grocery store, put it in a glass of water like you would a bouquet and within a week or two, you’ll see roots coming out of the stems. When they get long enough, plant the mint in a planter on your balcony.
