Spearmint (Mentha spicata) (Spearmint)
Spearmint is a perennial, spreading herb which can grow up to 2-3 feet tall but is usually lower growing in commercial plantings where it is harvested on a regular basis. It is often used fresh for southeast Asian and meat dishes, salads, teas, and sauces. Elsewhere, spearmint is grown for processing of its essential oil but production in Hawaii is mainly used fresh for culinary purposes.
