- Synopsis
- This is an image of a sprig of flowering Garden mint: Mentha sachalinensis. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The stem of the plant starts at the bottom centre of the page. No roots have been shown. There are two leaves at the bottom of the stem branching to the left and right. The leaves have been drawn turned towards you so that it is possible to see their shape and veins. They are oval with serrated edges and are arranged in pairs up the stem with each pair rotated by 90 degrees. One of the leaves in the second pair up the page has not been shown as it would obscure other leaves. At the top of the image the stem branches into two, each with a spike of small, pink flowers. Mints can be found in most parts of the world, they are dicots and mostly perennial. Garden mint can grow up to 70 centimetres high. It is used in many countries for cooking and for making tea.
