Image of Blue Peppermint

A small to medium-sized peppermint tree widespread from south of the Glen Morrison and Niangala area of the Northern Tablelands of New South Wales through the Southern Tablelands to eastern Victoria, often on poor shallow soils. Among the peppermints, E. dives are notable for the very conspicuous, opposite, ovate, sessile, glaucous juvenile leaves which are, rarely, slightly connate at their bases.
