If you can grow one plant, it should be mint.

Spearmint is easy to grow, it is fun to grow, and you will use it every day if you have it.

Big Herb doesn't want you to know this, but a lot of time you can use mint in place of parsley, basil, or cilantro.

It doesn't work in all cases, but way more than you'd think.

It's also tasty in cold water, or as a hot tea. And you can mix it into ginger ale or club soda for a super tasty drink.

If you plant it in 5 gallon pot outside, it will come back in the spring. Whatever you have left over in the fall, you can freeze or dry.

You want a spearmint (or similar) with big leaves. If you can find it, pick up something like:

- Apple Mint
- Mojito Mint
- Kentucky Colonel
- Pineapple Mint
