Description
Spearmint is one of those herbs that’s always useful to have growing nearby. The fresh, fragrant leaves are perfect for adding to drinks, teas and cocktails, and they work just as well in cooking alongside lamb, potatoes, peas and other everyday dishes. You can pick the leaves fresh as you need them or dry them to use later on.
It’s really easy to grow and quickly fills out once established, giving you plenty of fresh growth through the season. Whether planted in the garden, a patio pot or on a kitchen windowsill, it adds both greenery and a lovely minty scent to the space.
As a hardy perennial, it comes back year after year with very little effort, making it a great choice for beginners or anyone wanting a low-maintenance herb plant that’s both practical and rewarding.
