Grow Mentha arvensis (Wild Mint) for its fresh, aromatic foliage and classic minty flavor. You will get a tidy mound of green, toothed leaves topped by small, pale flowers in summer that are visited by pollinators.

Give it full sun to part shade and evenly moist soil for best growth. It adapts to average garden soil as long as it does not dry out completely for long periods. Cut stems back at any time to encourage bushier regrowth and a steady supply of leaves.

Like many mints, it spreads by underground runners and can travel beyond where you first plant it. For easy control, grow it in a pot or install a barrier, and remove wandering shoots as they appear. Divide clumps to refresh older plants or to share with friends.
