mint<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n\n<p>Mints belong to the mint family ( <em>Lamiaceae<\/em> ) and are popular in herb beds, fragrant beds, or in pots on balconies, windowsills, or patios. This is no wonder because mints not only smell wonderful, they can also be creatively processed in the kitchen. The healing effect of mint has long been known and is said to help against gastrointestinal complaints, colds, headaches, and muscle aches, for example.<\/p>\n<p>In a verse by Walahfrid Strabo from the 9th century it is said that if one wanted to name the many species and names of mint, he would have to list as many as there are fish in the sea. Although there are not quite that many, the mint genus is extensive and new varieties are always being bred.<br \/>\nThe following is an overview of the classics of mint: mints, which are particularly suitable for tea, mints, which are mainly found in the wild, and more exotic types of mint with special flavors.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Classic_types_of_mint\"><\/span>Classic types of mint<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You have probably heard of the following five types of mint.

However, it is unclear where this type of mint originally comes from. What is certain is that it is a cross between the brook mint ( <em>Mentha aquatica<\/em> ) and the green mint ( <em>Mentha spicata<\/em> ). It is valued above all for its high menthol content and its peppery-spicy aroma. In cultivation, it is undemanding, perennial, and hardy.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13028\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Peppermint-is-valued-for-its-hot-peppery-aroma.jpg\" alt=\"Peppermint is valued for its hot, peppery aroma\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Peppermint-is-valued-for-its-hot-peppery-aroma.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Peppermint-is-valued-for-its-hot-peppery-aroma-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Peppermint-is-valued-for-its-hot-peppery-aroma-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Spearmint_Mentha_spicata\"><\/span>Spearmint ( <em>Mentha spicata<\/em> )<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Even if the name is not that common, spearmint is arguably the most commonly used of the mint varieties. It is also called Krause Mint or Spear Mint (in English &#8220;spearmint&#8221;). It is this type of mint that gives toothpaste, chewing gum, or sweets the minty taste. It originally comes from the USA but is now also widespread in large parts of Asia and Africa. This type of mint is very vigorous and grows rampant. It can grow up to 130 centimeters high.

It originates from Europe and can be found today in large parts of Africa and Europe. As the name suggests, this mint feels good in damp conditions. That is why they are mainly found in the wild on banks, ditches, moors, or wet meadows. The peculiarity of the seeds of this type of mint is that they only spread over the water. It grows up to 90 centimeters high and is suitable for planting pond edges in the garden.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13030\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Water-mint-doesnt-mind-wet-feet-at-all.jpg\" alt=\"Water mint doesn't mind wet feet at all\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Water-mint-doesnt-mind-wet-feet-at-all.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Water-mint-doesnt-mind-wet-feet-at-all-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pennyroyal_Mentha_pulegium\"><\/span>Pennyroyal ( <em>Mentha pulegium<\/em> )<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This type of mint can grow 10 to 50 centimeters high and has delicate purple flowers from May to September. The pennyroyal looks very similar to the peppermint. However, caution is advised as the pennyroyal is poisonous. The only difference between pennyroyal and peppermint are the flowers: the two mints are the same in the length of the stamens and in the throat. In the past, pennyroyal was still used as a remedy, but today it is not used due to its toxicity. The pennyroyal should not be picked as it is under nature protection and classified as endangered on the Red List. In the garden, it is well suited for the fragrance bed.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13031\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Even-if-it-looks-tempting-the-pennyroyal-is-poisonous.jpg\" alt=\"Even if it looks tempting, the pennyroyal is poisonous\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Even-if-it-looks-tempting-the-pennyroyal-is-poisonous.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Even-if-it-looks-tempting-the-pennyroyal-is-poisonous-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mojito_Mint_Mentha_nemorosa\"><\/span>Mojito Mint ( <em>Mentha<\/em> <em>nemorosa<\/em> )<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Mojito Mint is also called Hemingway mint or cocktail mint.

It is probably a coincidental cross between a garden mint and the wild water mint ( <em>Mentha aquatica<\/em> ). This type of mint is characterized by its intense taste with a lot of spicinesses. It is therefore used for tea, soups, and desserts. The leaves of the English mint are green and tinge to red. The plants reach heights of up to 80 centimeters, are persistent and vigorous.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13035\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/English-mint-has-an-intense-and-pungent-taste.jpg\" alt=\"English mint has an intense and pungent taste\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/English-mint-has-an-intense-and-pungent-taste.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/English-mint-has-an-intense-and-pungent-taste-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/English-mint-has-an-intense-and-pungent-taste-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Apple_mint_or_round-leaved_mint_Mentha_suaveolens\"><\/span>Apple mint or round-leaved mint ( <em>Mentha suaveolens<\/em> )<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Apple mint is also called round-leaved mint.

The apple mint can grow up to 100 centimeters high. It blooms lilac in summer.

Determining the respective species is a lot more difficult. Almost all types of mint are also very vigorous and spread &#8211; mostly unintentionally &#8211; very quickly. What almost all mints have in common is that they are perennial plants. In addition, most (with a few exceptions) are hardy. All types of mint are also easy to care for and easy to grow so that everyone can cultivate mint. The mints are also very similar in terms of location requirements: Almost all of them appreciate a partially shaded place with fresh, moist soil.
