Plant description

Peppermint loves a shady, humid place. Especially for making tea mint leaves can be used, as well as in fruit salads, meat dishes, beans, carrots and cabbage. Industrially peppermint oil is extracted from it. All mint species like to grow in a damp, nutritious soil and not in the full sun.
