6 live bare root plants with 5–6" stems | Field grown in Brattleboro, Vermont | Washed clean of
soil, mailed in moist medium
Classic Peppermint is the bold, unmistakable standard against which all other mints are
measured. Its high menthol content delivers the clean, cooling, intensely aromatic flavor you
know from peppermint tea, candy, and baked goods. It is the workhorse of the herb garden and
the most widely recognized mint flavor in the world.
Our Vermont-grown peppermint is a natural hybrid (Mentha × piperita) with exceptional vigor and
cold hardiness — it thrives in northern climates and comes back stronger every year. Use it fresh
in teas and cocktails, dried for long-term use, or as a fragrant addition to any garden bed. If you
only grow one mint, this is the one.
QUICK SPECS:
Best uses: Teas, baking, candy, cocktails, dried herbs, aromatherapy
Hardiness: USDA Zones 3–9
Mature height: 12–24 inches
Light: Full sun to partial shade
