Although peppermint is not a flower, it is also a famous fragrant herb pot plant. Although it does not bloom, its green leaves are very ornamental, and more importantly, the value of peppermint grass is not just in appearance, but also in its edible and medicinal value.
Peppermint grass has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. In summer, it is easy to get angry. When there is swelling and pain in the gums, sore throat, and dry and sore eyes, you can pick a few fresh peppermint leaves and make tea to drink. The effect is very good.

It's simple to make peppermint tea. Wash the peppermint leaves and put them in a cup. After adding boiling water, immediately pour out the water, then pour in boiling water again, cover the lid and steep for 5 minutes. Open the lid, and the water can be drunk when it is cool.
The first water is drained mainly to wash the tea.
Peppermint Itching Relief for Insect Bites
Peppermint can be taken internally to clear heat and detoxify, and can also be used externally. It is very effective for insect bites. Especially for families with children, Green Plant Enthusiast Network recommends that you must raise a pot of peppermint.
When bitten by insects, pick two leaves of peppermint, rub them hard, squeeze out the juice, and wipe the bitten area directly, which can immediately stop itching and reduce swelling.
The Green Plant Enthusiast Network was once stung by a hornet and it hurt a lot at the time. After using the peppermint leaves to wipe, it didn't feel painful after a couple of minutes, and the swelling was also reduced. The effect is really magical.
Peppermint can treat insect bites, and of course, it can also repel mosquitoes. Placed in front of the windowsill, the smell of peppermint can have a certain effect of repelling mosquitoes.
Peppermint is so good, so how should it be cared for?
