Description

Spearmint is a perennial herb with fragrant, bright green leaves. It is commonly used in teas and cooking.

Product features

• Strong, sweet mint fragrance and flavor, distinct from peppermint
• Fast-growing and vigorous, quickly filling containers or garden spaces
• Perennial, returning year after year in many climates (USDA zones 5–11)
• Leaves can be harvested repeatedly throughout the growing season
• Suitable for containers, herb gardens, and as a ground cover in damp areas
• Produces small lavender or pink flower spikes in summer
• Attracts beneficial insects when flowering

Sowing: Start indoors 6–8 weeks before last frost, or direct sow after frost. Surface sow or barely cover with soil (⅛ inch). Space plants 18 inches apart. Full sun to partial shade.
Soil & Temperature: Prefers rich, moist, well-draining soil (pH 6.0–7.5). Germination temperature 65–70°F (18–21°C).
Germination Time: 7–14 days.
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist throughout the growing season. Mint prefers consistent moisture but not soggy conditions.
Additional Tips: Spearmint spreads aggressively by runners. Always grow in containers or in a root barrier to prevent garden takeover. Pinch back growing tips to encourage bushiness. Cut back after flowering to promote fresh leaf growth. Divide every 2–3 years if growing in ground.
