Mentha x piperita

Peppermint is a well-loved herb known for its refreshing aroma and wide range of uses, from cooking to home remedies. At The Growers Exchange, we’re excited to offer high-quality peppermint plants that make a perfect addition to any herb garden. Read on to learn more about this versatile plant.

What Is Peppermint?

Peppermint (Mentha x piperita) is a hybrid mint, a cross between watermint and spearmint. It is loved for its aromatic leaves and widespread use in culinary dishes, teas, and home remedies. The menthol in the leaves gives peppermint its signature cooling sensation.

Known for its refreshing scent, peppermint evokes sweet memories, especially the nostalgic aroma of candy canes. Just a whiff of its crisp fragrance can transport you back in time, making it one of the most powerful memory triggers among herbs.

Peppermint Appearance and Characteristics

Peppermint typically grows 1 to 3 feet tall with square stems and lance-shaped, serrated leaves. The leaves are deep green with a hint of purple, and the plant blooms with small, pale purple flowers in late summer. Its fragrant aroma is most potent when the leaves are crushed or bruised, releasing the refreshing scent of menthol.

Peppermint Origins and History

Peppermint's rich history dates back to at least 1500 B.C. when ancient cultures began cultivating it for food and herbal remedies. Thought to have originated in Northern Africa or the Mediterranean, the name "peppermint" comes from Greek mythology. 

According to legend, Hades fell in love with a nymph named Minthe. When his wife learned of their affair, she transformed Minthe into a plant that grew abundantly and was often overlooked.

Hades modified the curse to ease her punishment, giving Minthe a sweet, soothing aroma so that anyone who walked over her would remember her.

Interestingly, archaeologists discovered dried peppermint leaves in ancient Egyptian pyramids dating back 3,000 years. The oil from these leaves was highly valued, and rulers believed it would accompany them into the afterlife.

In ancient Rome, peppermint was frequently used to flavor special dishes at feasts and added to sauces and wines. It was often displayed on dining tables, and noblemen would braid its long stems into decorative crowns.

The Ancient Hebrews also valued peppermint for its pleasant scent and used it to cover synagogue floors during special occasions.


Peppermint Plant Care: How to Grow Peppermint

Growing peppermint is easy when given the right environment. Follow these tips to keep your peppermint plant healthy and thriving:

Light

Peppermint grows well in both full sun and partial shade. While it can tolerate some shade, more sunlight improves its flavor and fragrance by increasing essential oil production. For best results, place it within a foot of a south-facing window to ensure it gets 4 to 6 hours of direct sunlight daily.

Soil

​​Peppermint prefers rich, loamy soil that stays consistently moist but can adapt to various soil types. Just make sure the soil is loose and drains well to avoid waterlogging. If planting directly in the ground, use barriers to control its spread, as peppermint can rapidly take over a garden.

Temperature

Peppermint grows best in cooler climates, ideally between 55°F and 70°F. It can tolerate light frosts but struggles in prolonged cold. In warmer weather, ensure the soil remains moist to keep the plant healthy.

Watering

​​Peppermint likes consistently moist soil, but be careful not to overwater it, as soggy roots can damage the plant. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings. For potted plants, aim for about 0.8 cups of water every nine days if it's not getting direct sunlight. 

Fertilizing

Peppermint plants benefit from a balanced diet of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K). After each harvest, apply a light dose of fertilizer to support recovery and encourage regrowth. Feeding every 45 days will keep your plants healthy.

Pruning

Regular pruning is essential to keep your peppermint plant compact and bushy. Trim the tips regularly to promote new growth and prevent the plant from becoming leggy.


Uses and Benefits of Peppermint

The peppermint plant is truly an herb that keeps on giving. Here’s how you can make the most of this versatile plant:

  • Culinary Uses: Peppermint adds a refreshing flavor to desserts, salads, sauces, and drinks like tea and mojitos. The essential oil menthol, extracted from its leaves and flowers, is also commonly found in gum, toothpaste, and flavored treats.

  • Medicinal Uses: Known for its soothing properties, peppermint helps with digestion, relieves headaches, and eases nausea, menstrual cramps, and skin irritation. Its calming effect also helps with anxiety and flatulence.

  • Aromatherapy: The cool, minty scent of peppermint is popular in aromatherapy for clearing the mind, reducing stress, and boosting energy. Its essential oil is often used for headache relief and relaxation.

  • Natural Insect Repellent: While peppermint oil has a pleasant scent for humans, mosquitoes and other garden pests find it off-putting. Dilute the oil with water before spraying to protect your plants while keeping pests at bay.

  • Fragrance: Fresh or dried peppermint leaves are excellent for potpourris and sachets, providing a clean, lasting scent for your home.

I paid for the product and it’s GOOD 👍🏽
Size: Queen(Pack of 2), Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
Honest review to help your decision. These are a bargain at two for one. I paid almost $30 for one at a local retailer and it’s already flattened after 7 months. This product arrives vacuum sealed with the cooling pillow covers separately (separate so you can wash before using). They are loaded with memory foam which I found pleasing. I chose to leave all of the foam in because I’m sure it’ll flatten sometime in the future. I’ve been using these for TWO MONTHS now and they have not flattened. Easy to mold and fluff, soft and they are added support for my back up pillows. I cannot attest to any type of pain relief because I have not experienced that with these personally. I do feel my sleep is better so my tension headaches have lessened. The cooling hex layer is on the cover NOT the actual pillows. I’m sure everyone knows that memory foam gets really hot 🥵 but the cooling covers on these help minimize that. It actually feels cool to the touch like a gel product. I find the quality to be exceptional. All in all, give it a shot.

More soft than firm
Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
Not firm but more soft, would I be returning probably not but if you were already on the fence this is your confirmation that it’s not as described, ( well to my standards at least ) it does feel of good quality but I was looking more a sturdy firm that soft and cushion feeling .

Best fluffy but firm pillows
Size: King(Pack of 2), Size: King(Pack of 2)
These pillows are worth every penny! They started off pretty flat but after three days they plumped up well. In addition to them being plump, they are also firm. Exactly what I was looking for. You can shake up the internal stuffing if you want them softer too. They were a bit pricey but I’m going to repurchase and replace all my home pillows with these. I do sleep hot and the cooling side is perfect to lay on. Kept me cool and comfortable. I haven’t had any neck or back pain after switching to these pillows too. Absolutely recommend these for your home. The photo shows how full the pillows are. I have four pillows in the picture plus two smaller other brands. These are definitely fluffier.

This Pillow Is A Must Buy!! What Are You Waiting For?
Size: Queen (Pack of 1)
This is, without a doubt, the best pillow I have ever owned. One of my favorite features is the adjustable shredded memory foam fill, which allows you to customize the loft and firmness by adding or removing foam to suit your sleeping preferences. As both a side and back sleeper, I found it incredibly comfortable and supportive. The overall quality is excellent, from the materials used in the pillow itself to the thoughtful packaging. The removable cover is washable, although I personally use a pillowcase to keep it protected. I also appreciated that extra foam is included, making it easy to fine-tune the pillow over time. The difference in my sleep quality was noticeable from the very first night. I’ve been sleeping more comfortably and waking up feeling more rested ever since I started using it. Considering the quality, comfort, and customization options, I believe the $75 price point is well worth it. I am so impressed with this pillow that I plan to purchase another one in the future.

This is a high-quality, well-designed pillow that combines softness, comfort, and adjustability
Size: Queen (Pack of 1), Size: Queen (Pack of 1)
I purchased the DreamyBlue Signature Adjustable Pillow for my husband because he often experiences back discomfort, and many of the pillows we had previously would become flat and lose their support over time. This pillow has exceeded our expectations. It is incredibly soft, comfortable, and comes with extra filling, which allows you to adjust the firmness to your personal preference. We really appreciated having that option. Even after extended use, the pillow has maintained its shape much better than other pillows we've owned. It provides a plush, cozy feel while still offering good support. My husband finds it very comfortable, and it has quickly become his favorite pillow. This is a high-quality, well-designed pillow that combines softness, comfort, and adjustability. I would definitely recommend it.
