My English/Turkish dictionary doesn't make which 'Mint' clear (or perhaps it's me  :-\)

It might be 'Nane Sekeri' or even 'Darphane'

The other terms for 'Mint' refer to 'being Minted or Minting' as in 'Para' :D but they don't tell you how to do this :(:D ;)

Just root a couple of cuttings in water and plant up in a pot on the balcony and you will have all the fresh mint you want. :)

I have a 'Pineapple Mint' plant in my garden  :)

It's a lovely alternative to regular mint  :)
