Peppermint Mint (Mentha × piperita) is a vigorous, aromatic herb celebrated for its strong, refreshing minty flavor. Its bright green leaves release a cool, invigorating aroma, making it perfect for teas, cocktails, desserts, and savory dishes alike.
This hardy perennial spreads quickly, forming dense clumps that thrive in full sun to partial shade and consistently moist, well-drained soil. Peppermint also produces small purple flowers in mid to late summer, attracting pollinators and adding charm to herb gardens.
Easy to grow and virtually maintenance-free, Peppermint Mint is a must-have for home gardeners seeking a flavorful, versatile herb that’s as practical as it is fragrant.
