= Mint = '''Mint''' is a fragrant herb with many culinary and medicinal uses. It is hardy in USDA hardiness zones 3-11. == Starting Plants == Mint is typically grown from cuttings or transplants, as it can be invasive when grown from seed. Plant transplants in spring, spacing them 12-18 inches apart. == Plant Size == Mint plants can grow 12-36 inches tall and spread indefinitely via rhizomes. == Harvesting == Mint can be harvested as needed, typically 60-90 days after planting. Cut stems just above a pair of leaves to encourage bushier growth. Plants will continue producing until frost. == Seed Harvesting == Mint rarely produces viable seeds, so it is typically propagated from cuttings or transplants. == Common Varieties == Common varieties include [[Peppermint]], [[Spearmint]], [[Chocolate Mint]], and [[Apple Mint]]. == Uses == Mint is used in teas, cocktails, desserts, and as a flavoring for various dishes. It is also used in aromatherapy and has medicinal properties.
