Sold as 1 Single small Spearmint Plant as shown in the photos. This variety of spearmint has slightly rounded leaves and a green stem.
One of the most favored of the mint plants is spearmint (Mentha spicata). This highly aromatic plant is valued for its culinary, medicinal and cosmetic use.
The leaves are used to flavor vinegar and jelly (often served with roast lamb and other meats), and to enhance thirst-quenching cooling beverages.
Growing and Maintaining Spearmint Plants
- Spearmint, once planted takes off quickly and can take over quickly as well.
- Grow the Spearmint Plant in hanging basket or a container to avoid having to pull out runners constantly.
- Mint in the garden should be mulched annually to keep the roots cool and moist.
- Potted mint does best when fertilized monthly during the growing season with a liquid fertilizer.
- Divide plants every two years to keep them healthy.
- Prune potted plants regularly to keep neat and tidy.
- If you live in an area with very cold winters, it is best to bring potted spearmint indoors and place in a sunny window.
