Peppermint (Mentha × piperita) is a hybrid mint variety, a natural cross between watermint and spearmint, originally native to Europe and the Middle East. This herb has become a staple in gardens and kitchens worldwide, known for its cooling sensation and refreshing aroma. The plant is a vigorous grower, reaching a height of 30–90 cm and producing beautiful purple flowers in the summer months.
