The Peppermint herb plant has small pink, white, or purple flowers at the end of each stem from July to September. It is wonderfully fragrant and provides a cool, fresh scent that is so familiar in the summertime.Medicinal Properties:Peppermint is a popular traditional remedy for a number of conditions. It is believed to have calming effects and is used to treat flatulence, menstrual pains, diarrhea, nausea, depression-related anxiety, muscle and nerve pain, the common cold, indigestion, and IBS.Growing Instructions:Sowing Peppermint herb seeds is simple and a great way to bring this summertime favorite to the herb garden.
