The Story
A useful member of the Mint family with a wide range of applications. Frequently used as an insecticide and pest repellent. Dried leaves can be used to repel fleas, moths and mice.
Historically used as a tea for medicinal purposes with a spearmint like flavour, it was thought to aid digestion, while traditionally it was recommended for soothing fevers and headaches. There are however significant toxic side effects if consumed in excess. Research well before using and do not take if pregnant as it can induce abortion/miscarriage.
Surface Sow: Requires light to germinate. Scatter seed on the surface. Press seed down into the soil. Keep moist.
Note: Medicinal use of herbs requires thorough research. We advise checking with a medical professional particularly if pregnant, breastfeeding or on medication.
