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.

ASUS Chromebook Flip CX1 touchscreen - extraordinary value
Style: Convertible | Touch
The ASUS Chromebook Flip CX1 is excellent for what it is designed for: light computer work, some work as a tablet, easy to carry everywhere and well built. This is not a gaming computer or for anyone doing lots of graphics work, but it is superb for basic word processing, zoom meetings, note taking and as an extension of your phone. The connection with the phone is seemless and can be used as an extension of the phone including running phone apps, sending texts and tethering to the phone. It is an extraordinary value for what you are getting which includes a convertible laptop and touch screen.

Great Chromebook for Everyday Use
Style: Convertible
I’m very happy with this ASUS Chromebook. It’s fast, lightweight, and extremely easy to use. ChromeOS runs smoothly, starts up in seconds, and handles everyday tasks like browsing, streaming, emails, and documents without any issues. The battery life is excellent, lasting most of the day, and the design is slim and comfortable to carry around. The keyboard is responsive, and the screen quality is good for work, school, or entertainment. Overall, this Chromebook offers great performance for the price and is perfect for students, home use, or anyone who needs a reliable and simple laptop. Highly recommended.

Touch screen, long battery life, and it has a MicroSD slot on the side. Missing a backlit keyboard
Style: Convertible | Touch
Overall, this is a great computer for the price. It's not the fastest, but it's not the slowest. I just wish it had a backlit keyboard. And computers or laptops that have backlit keyboards are usually on the pricier side. They should make a Chrome laptop that has a backlit keyboard that is under $300. Anyhow, it starts up real quick, I noticed that it is a little bit heavy, but that's a good thing because if the battery is lasting a long time and it does seem to last a long time, then I'm okay with it being heavy. I've always trusted this brand, and I also like that it has a touch screen feature. With that being said, if it has a touch screen feature, it should automatically include a backlit keyboard. Anyhow, great computer at a great price. The big selling point for me is that it had a memory card slot for your memory cards. I have a DJI drone, and I needed a computer or should I say a laptop that had a memory card slot on the side and this one has it. And you don't need the big adapter that comes with many micro SD cards. The micro SD card fit perfectly into the slot on the side of the computer

Look elsewhere for a different device. This is garbage
Style: Convertible, Style: Convertible
I normally don't write reviews, but when I do it's either for something outstanding or something that should be steered clear by everyone in the general public. Unfortunately, this one is for the latter. I purchased this device to begin with as a laptop to be used by my son for Chicago public schools and allow him to be able to access his school work. Upon receiving the first unit physically, the device looks and feels wonderful and within 2 days of starting to use it. The screen was no longer capable for touch capabilities and the keyboard was non-functional as well. I called their customer support line at Asus and Asus. Couldn't figure out what was wrong either, but I was supposed to pay to send a device I just bought to go have it repaired by Asus and this is why I say their customer service is knowledge below standard but I would say some of the worst there is on the market today. Amazon luckily was able to step in and send me a new unit as a replacement. Amazon's customer service is some of the best I've ever you dealt with. Got the new unit and now this one over here. Can't even stay connected to Wi-Fi. My kid can't do his homework. This computer is a total piece of garbage even for something as simple as a means to do homework for a grade school. I will never touch another asus device again and I would advise anyone else that is looking into this product to look elsewhere to avoid the frustration that I'm going through right now
