Common Names: Spearmint, mint, brown mint, garden mint, Our Lady's mint, sage of Bethlehem, menthol mint, silver mint, spiremint. Both peppermint and spearmint figure prominently in US agricultural heritage. Spearmint, native to the Mediterranean region arrived to America during the Colonial period. So significant is the plant in the US that there is an established Mint Industry Research Council. In Greek mythology the goddess Persephone, jealous of Pluto's love for the nymph Minthe, transformed Minthe into the spearmint plant. Pluto, unable to return the lovely nymph to her original form, ensured her that, at least, her fragrance would be enjoyed by all as a pleasant aroma, arising each time it was walked upon. It is considered to be a bee herb. Mythological gods maintained special fields of mint just for bees to enjoy in their prolific honeymaking. Mints served as a form of currency in antiquity. Tables were scrubbed with fresh leaves in preparation for feasts. The naturalist Pliny (1 AD) had his students wrap their heads with mint braids to bring delight to the soul, improve the mind, and enhance scholarship. Aristotle prohibited soldiers' use of mint before battles, believing it would diminish their aggressiveness. Greek athletes rubbed bruised mint leaves into their sore muscles. In the Middle Ages it said to have mystical powers and was used to dispel the evil eye.
