Did you know? An unusual and lesser-known fact about Mentha piperita, or peppermint, is its ability to repel various pests and insects naturally. Peppermint produces a potent aroma that is pleasant to humans but can be overwhelming and deterrent to many types of insects, including mosquitoes, ants, and even some types of spiders. This makes peppermint not just popular in culinary and medicinal applications but also valuable in organic gardening and natural pest control methods.

Furthermore, peppermint has an interesting trait related to its growth and reproduction. Unlike many plants, peppermint does not produce true seeds to reproduce (due to its hybrid nature). Instead, it spreads vigorously through its rhizomes, or underground stems, which allow it to colonize large areas rapidly. This can be both an advantage and a challenge for gardeners, as peppermint can quickly become invasive if not managed properly. This unique reproductive strategy contributes to its widespread availability and use, but it also requires careful cultivation to prevent it from overtaking other plants in gardens.

Suggested Storage: Should be stored below 20°C in cool, dry, well-ventilated place in tightly sealed containers. Protect from direct sources of light and keep away from any source of ignition/fire.
