SPEARMINT Mentha Spicata - 1,500 Bulk Seeds

SPEARMINT Mentha Spicata - 1,500 Bulk Seeds Spearmint Mentha Spicata is a rhizomatous, upright perennial herb. Spearmint seeds are normally started indoors 8-10 weeks before last frost. One of the most popular herbs, Spearmint typically grows to 3 feet tall featuring aromatic foliage with lance-shaped leaves that have a unique wrinkled texture, and oblong terminal spikes of lilac-pink to white Spearmint flowers appear all summer attracting bees and butterflies. Spearmint is extremely easy to grow, and this popular herb is most commonly grown as a culinary herb or ground cover. Spearmint grows vigorously and can be somewhat invasive, so sometimes gardeners choose to confine the plant to containers or pots. Mentha Spicata seeds have to be kept moist until germination, and the seedling can be transplanted when it is at least 2 inches tall. Spearmint leaves have a strong spearmint fragrance and taste, and may be used to flavor teas, in salads, as a garnish or in potpourris. The leaves are harvested as needed, and the young leaves and stems have best flavor.

Seed is a live product which depends on many important related grower skills such as proper planting time, seed depth, type of soil, irrigation, proper use of fertilizers, weed controls, fungicides, insecticides, disease free soil, and reasonable weather conditions during the growing period. Germination is affected by such factors as temperature, moisture content, light intensity and contamination of planting media. These factors are totally out of the seller's control and are the buyer's responsibility and risk. Consequently, the seller cannot unconditionally guarantee seed to perform properly regardless of conditions or the buyer's methods or mistakes. This is the sole warranty; we make no other, express or implied. We cannot guarantee establishment of seed due to various factors over which we have no control. Liability, whether contractual, for negligence or otherwise, is limited in all respects to the amount of the purchase price of the seeds, regardless of the nature, cause or extent of the loss. It is expressly agreed that this limited remedy is exclusive and that we shall not be liable for any damages over and above the purchase price of this product. And as a condition to any liability on our part, we must receive notice by registered mail of any claim.
