Days to maturity is the estimated time it takes for a vegetable plant to grow from a transplant to harvest-ready under favorable environmental conditions. Your care and attention are key in managing the plant's growth. Factors such as temperature fluctuations, nutrient deficiencies, soil conditions, insufficient daily sunlight, and inadequate pollination can prolong the maturation process, but with your commitment, these can be minimized.

We want you to feel secure in your choice, which is why our top priority is the safety of our products. We achieve this by maintaining stringent safety measures in our production process, ensuring that you can trust the quality of our plants.

While many herbs offer us health benefits, it's crucial to be aware that certain plants and spices can be harmful, even toxic, to pets. If you suspect your dog or cat has been in contact with or ingested something poisonous and your pet is experiencing gastrointestinal issues, such as diarrhea and vomiting, it's important to act immediately. Call your veterinarian or seek advice from a veterinary poison hotline, the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center, or the Pet Poison Helpline.

Being proactive and responsible, it's always a good practice to know what plants are safe around pets before purchasing.

Spearmint, Mentha spicata, produces dark green foliage with spear-like, serrated leaves and is considered one of the least spicy mint varieties but more robust than sweet mint. Its flavor, derived from the chemical compound carvone, offers a unique taste experience. On the other hand, sweet mint, Mentha x suavis, a close relative of peppermint, produces lighter-colored, rounder leaves and a flavor that's less cooling than peppermint but sweeter, inviting you to explore its unique flavor profile.

Both sweet mint and spearmint are not just versatile, but also incredibly popular among gardening enthusiasts. Their wide range of uses, catering to various culinary, aromatic, and even medicinal needs, makes them popular choices.
