Peppermint

Scientific Name:

Mentha x piperita

Peppermint thrives in moist, well-drained soil with full sun to partial shade and regular watering, avoiding waterlogging. It attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies, repels pests like ants and mosquitoes, and helps control soil erosion. Rich in menthol, it offers cooling, soothing effects and is known to relieve digestion issues, headaches, and congestion.
