About Spearmint Plants
Looking to add a refreshing touch to your home garden or indoor space? Add ready-to-plant, organic spearmint plants! Spearmint is a classic herb that’s known for its fresh, cool flavor and aroma. Its distinct cool and slightly sweet flavor is milder than peppermint. Spearmint is a popular choice for adding to teas, cocktails, desserts, and more. Not only does it taste great, but it’s also known to have a range of health benefits. Spearmint is believed to aid digestion, improve memory, and reduce stress levels.
Mint plants are also used in permaculture as a natural pest deterrent. Spearmint contains natural oils that are toxic to many common garden pests, including ants, aphids, and fleas. Planting spearmint throughout your garden can help to repel these pests and keep your plants healthy without the need for chemical pesticides.
Spearmint is also a great companion plant for many other crops. It’s known to attract beneficial insects like bees and butterflies, which can help to pollinate your other plants and improve yields. Additionally, the deep root system of spearmint helps to improve soil quality by breaking up compacted soil and adding nutrients.
How to Grow Spearmint
This herb is easy to grow and frost tolerant. Most varieties of mint grow as a perennial in zones 3 through 8. In warmer zones, you can still grow this plant as either an outdoor annual or an indoor plant. These spreading plants are great for containers or can be planted in gardens as a ground cover. This variety of spearmint is a bit more compact than other mint varieties.
Simply place it in a sunny spot, water it regularly, and watch it thrive. They are tolerant of partial shade. Our spearmint plants are grown in premium-quality soil and are carefully tended to ensure they’re healthy and strong. With proper care, your plant will produce an abundance of fresh spearmint leaves that you can use to add a burst of flavor to all of your favorite dishes.
