Mentha (USDA Organic) Mint, Peppermint, Mentha piperita ‘Mint, Peppermint’, is a hybrid of the original mint, spearmint; leaves are generally oval, slightly wrinkled in texture, with lightly serrated edges. A very distinguishable characteristic of mint is the square stems. Good for container gardens since mint can be invasive in the garden. Fresh mint leaves are more flavorful than dried, so freeze the leaves for winter use. And don’t forget when you cut off those mint flowers to use them in tabouleh, or chocolate mint ice cream.
