Mentha arvensis (Mint) is one species of mint native to the temperate
regions of Europe and western and central Asian east to the Himalaya and eastern
Siberia. It is a herbaceous perennial plant growing to 10-60cm (rarely to 100
cm) tall. The leaves are in opposite pairs, simple, 2-6.5 cm long and 1-2cm
broad, hairy, and with a coarsely serrated margin. The flowers are pale purple
(occasionally white or pink), in clusters on the stem, each flower 3-4 mm long.
Menthol, menthone, isomenthone, limonene, neomenthol, methyl acetate,
