Spearmint

Scientific Name:

Mentha spicata

Spearmint thrives in well-drained, loamy soil with consistent moisture and partial to full sunlight. It attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies, prevents soil erosion as ground cover, and supports beneficial insects such as predatory wasps. Known for its medicinal properties, spearmint aids digestion, relieves nausea, and soothes headaches due to its menthol content.
