The Mint Spearmint, ‘Mentha spicata’, is a hardy perennial mint that has more uses than most herbs, such as, teas, cooking, and baths. Ever tried mint water?

A cup of mint tea is used for insomnia and the leaves can be chewed for bad breath. Plant in the spring in most any kind of soil. This plant can be grown inside in a pot.
