Mentha spicata, commonly known as Spearmint, is a vigorous hardy perennial herb prized for its fresh, sweet mint flavour and intensely aromatic green leaves. Softer and less sharply mentholated than peppermint, its refreshing flavour makes it one of the most versatile mints for everyday culinary use.
Fresh leaves are excellent in teas, cold drinks, salads, sauces, desserts and traditional mint sauce, and can also be dried for later use. Spearmint is extremely productive once established, producing repeated harvests of fresh foliage throughout the growing season. Its spreading habit makes it particularly well suited to containers, where growth can be easily controlled, while summer flower spikes are also attractive to bees and other pollinating insects.
● Fresh, sweet and highly aromatic classic mint flavour
● Suitable for growing indoors in pots for fresh mint close at hand
● Excellent for teas, cold drinks, sauces, salads and desserts
● Productive cut-and-come-again herb for repeated harvesting
● Hardy perennial that returns year after year
● Easy to grow in containers where its vigorous spread can be controlled
● Kitchen herb gardens
● Indoor windowsill growing
● Patio containers
● Fresh herbal teas and drinks
● Culinary harvesting
● Pollinator-friendly herb gardens
● Surface sow the very small seeds and gently press them onto moist compost without covering, as light aids germination.
● Spearmint can also be grown indoors in a pot on a bright windowsill. Provide plenty of natural light, keep the compost evenly moist and harvest stems regularly to encourage fresh leafy growth.
● For the most useful culinary growth, harvest or trim stems regularly to encourage fresh, tender shoots and prevent plants becoming coarse.
● Grow Spearmint in a large container if you want to restrict its vigorous underground spread; plants grown directly in open soil can spread rapidly through rhizomes.
● Keep plants consistently watered during dry periods, especially when growing in containers, as moisture encourages lush, tender leaf production.
● For the best flavour and aroma, harvest leafy stems before flowering; regular cutting can also delay flowering and extend the supply of fresh leaves.
