Spearmint (Mentha spicata) is a classic garden herb with real purpose. Its fresh, dark green, toothed leaves and soft lilac flower spikes not only look great but also help attract pollinators. Also known as garden mint, it spreads quickly—so we recommend growing it in a pot to keep it in check.
Full of flavour and easy to grow, it’s perfect for homemade mint sauce, mint jelly, and more.
Plant it, pot it, love it.
