Spearmint A hardy branched perennial herb with bright green, lance
shaped, sharply serrated leaves, quickly spreading underground runners
and pink or lilac-colored flowers in slender cylindrical spikes. The

Spearmint is valued all over the world as a culinary herb and was used
by the Greeks as a restorative and to scent their bathwater. Native to
the Mediterranean region, spearmint is now common throughout Europe,

has become a very popular flavoring. The oil is produced in Midwest USA,
Hungary, Spain, former Yugoslavia, Russia, and China.
