Peppermint fills the air with its fresh, clean scent when rubbed. Its pleasant scent stirs thoughts of Christmas and candy canes. Peppermint is used to flavor teas, iced drinks, and baked goods. It is also used in potpourri and other fragrant decorative items. Peppermint has purple-tinged leaves and spikes of lilac-pink flowers. Peppermint can be planted near roses to deter aphids. Peppermint is a perennial, reaching 3 feet tall in the garden (much smaller in pots and indoors) and spreading just as far as you will let it. In summer, spikes of lilac-pink flowers top the foliage, attracting bees into the garden. Peppermint tea is an old-fashioned remedy for an upset stomach.
