Spearmint

The two pots from the top left corner are newly propagated mint plants. They seem to be doing well.

Pictures of another spearmint propagated by stem cutting. This particular pot was slow to start and does seem to wither and then come back to life again.

The exact same pot of mint as picture above.


The spearmint has got to be the most prolific one in my little plant collection. From one pot I got in November 2008, I have since got 5 or 6 pots going, probably more if not for the lack of space. It is easily propagated by stem cuttings and generally fuss-free. Just feed it with lots of water.
