Refreshing Garden Staple for Tea, Cooking, and Wellness

Spearmint (Mentha spicata) is a classic, cool, and invigorating herb grown for its sweet, minty aroma and refreshing flavor. A must-have for any edible garden or herb spiral, Spearmint is one of the most versatile herbs—used in everything from soothing teas and mojitos to salads, sauces, syrups, and skincare.

With its bright green, sharply toothed leaves, Spearmint spreads quickly to form a lush, fragrant patch that’s as beautiful as it is useful. It’s a traditional remedy for digestive support, stress relief, and respiratory health, and can be brewed into calming infusions or added fresh to just about anything in the kitchen.

Fast-growing and incredibly easy to care for, Spearmint thrives in partial to full sun and moist, well-draining soil. It grows well in containers (to prevent spreading) or in the ground where it can naturalize into minty borders or edible groundcover. Loved by bees and pollinators, Spearmint adds fresh energy and function to any garden space.
