#1020 — Morning with the mountain mint 晨曦山薄荷

Hi everyone,

This guzheng improvisation was recorded yesterday. I named the piece after encountering the mountain mint in Edwin Warner Park in Nashville (photo below). Other common names included wild basil or hoary basil. It is a herbaceous perennial in the mint family. The plant is widespread across Eastern United States and into Ontario, Canada. White blooms appear from July to September. Some believe that when it is crushed, the leaves emit a strong minty aroma, and are often used to flavor teas. Wish you all a restful weekend with some mint tea if you like tea :)
