Spearmint

Latin Menta spicata

Spearmint is a native herb of the Mediterranean and Asian regions. This popular heirloom variety is used in cooking and cocktails alike. Start making your own mojitos to impress your friends and enhance any backyard garden get together. To control or prevent its spread, spearmint is best in containers because of its vigorous growing habit. Plant near gardens and allow to flower to increase the presence of bees to your vegetables. In Zone 3 and above it can be invasive if seeded into the garden. The seeds are tiny so be careful not to over plant into pots. Mint can also be a good option to planting in areas with traffic as the human contact will release the fragrant oils. 90 Days to flowering.
