Spearmint

Mentha spicata

Description:

Spearmint. Known for its spear shaped leafs. The plant and leaf have a sweet minty aroma.

Habitat:

Like most mints, these plants can grow in a wide variety of weather conditions. When grown in clean, unpolluted soil, they grow fast and reproduce easily. Many gardeners consider them weeds if not maintained properly. For that reason, most people grow them in raised beds.
