Abstract
Peppermint plant selection 18-14-185, denominated ‘Palisade’ peppermint is a new Mentha x piperita cultivar that produces an essential oil different in composition than commercially grown mint varieties known to the Inventor. The essential oil is similar to standard Peppermint plant oil in components composition but differs substantially in the ratio of said components. Organoleptically, it differs from typical peppermint oil. It is more resistant to Verticillium dahliae mint wilt than current commercially grown varieties. Furthermore, ‘Palisade’ produces an oil type that varies minimally in oil profile based on plant maturity.
