How about a sprig of mint in a hot drink? Sprigs of mint in a spring bouquet? Or even a few springs of mint left near a air conditioning outlet or in a bowl of hot water for just a hint of something in the air. I'll pick fresh from the garden 20 healthy springs (at least 8 inches long) of beautiful mint. The tops can be used for their beauty, and the bottoms can be used for fragrance. Mentha spicata (Spearmint - named for its pointed leaves) is a species of mint native to much of Europe and southwest Asia. Spearmint was revered by ancient Romans for its ability to "stir up the mind" and it is still used as a medicinal tea, fragrance and oil.
