Is this Mentha piperita? – efloraofindia | Google Groups : 4 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (3) I suppose Mentha spicata Thank u …. But i was wondering, does the purple stem character stand true for M. spicata also??? Is it not specific for M. piperata??? any other sure shot morphological difference between the two species to be distinduished as M. spicata or piperata??? The highly crisped leaves suggest M. crispa (M. aquatica var. crispa) now considered as synonym of M. spicata. Also stem and leaves of M. x piperita are usually hairy. I find them glabrous here.
amituidlamiaceae 1 1162011: Strictly speaking this is Mentha crispa L., was earlier treated as M. aquatica var. crispa but is now considered as synonym of M. spicata L. subsp. spicata. You are correct in your assessment as M. viridis (L.) L. is also now (according to Kew Plant List, 2010) considered as synonym of M. spicata L. subsp. spicata. Thanks Sir, very problematic genus on account of its leaf morphology. Sending another photo of Mentha spicata subsp. spicata Mentha spicata L., Sp. Pl. 576 1753. Common names: Spearmint

mint flower Pudina: This picture was taken on 28th july 11in my Garden at Tala, Bandhavgarh M.P. India I think it is M. spicata only. The species is differentiated from similar species (M. longifolia, M. royleana, and M. x piperita) in its glabrous stems and leaves. . Indian Spearmint (Rajasthan Variety) : 2 posts by 2 authors. Please let me know what is the Spearmint varity we get it from Rajastan ? In USA I bought many varietites of Mentha Saptica from the nurseries, but no one matches with the flavour and tates of Indian variety.

Lamiaceae (Incl. Verbenaceae) Fortnight: Mentha spicata from Kaithal- NS May 104/104 : 5 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (3) Mentha spicata … nice. were the flowers leaning or is this just your camera position These are handheld shots i know that! my question was why is the long axis of the inflorescence along the long axis of the picture frame itself
where the inflorescence drooping or you turned your camera to capture the entire length? Oh yes! I wanted to get maximum view, the diagonal frame was also used to get maximum length..
Lamiaceae (incl. Verbenaceae) Fortnight :: Lamiaceae :: Mentha longifolia.:: SMPMAY49/49 : 1 post by 1 author. It is probably M. piperita – Pudina. M. longifolia found in Himalayas only I think it should be Mentha spicata as per images herein.

https://efloraofindia.com/2011/03/13/mentha-spicata/ I guess you are right No sir.. Not M.spicata…. Leaves and inflorescence is different Yes its different from mentha spicata I do not think so. Pl. see Leaves are densely hairy on both surfaces.. It is possible as it is widely cultivated.
