Germinates fast!

"Sprouted very quicky and are currently growing!"

— WALTER V. (5/5)

Great seeds

"Spearmint is so good to plant I can't wait till these seeds sprout more so I can finally plant them. It has a great taste and aroma. I can't wait to use it for tea, drinks and enhance meat and fish. Ferry Morse has great seeds to start planting for spring. Good packaging and durable plants."

— Jacqueline P. (5/5)

Awesome packaging

"This is the first time that I will be planting a Spearmint. I am so excited. The seeds of this are well rounded, the packaging is awesome with instructions at the back. I just can't wait"

— Feona R. (5/5)

So excited for fresh mint

"Super easy to plant. I've out these in a window box and am hoping that small creatures have less of a chance to get to the mint. I can't wait until the plant sprouts and I can make fresh mint tea."

— Jocelyn K. (5/5)

Good seeds

"I was pleasantly surprised at the germination rate of the seeds."

— Connie L. (4/5)

Spearmint Seeds

"Great germination in Jiffy soil and pellets. Started in January, will transfer to peat pots in late February and to larger pots in March ready to go on the porch in the Spring. I use Spearmint as a mouse deterrent in the chicken coop."

— Gayle C. (5/5)

Fast-sprouting, healthy spearmint seeds that are o

"I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly these spearmint seeds sprouted. Within a week, I started seeing little green shoots, and they look healthy and strong so far. The seeds came well-packaged and looked fresh right out of the packet. I didn’t have to use any special tricks, just planted them in moist soil and gave them sunlight. The germination rate seems great so far with most of them sprouting. I'm excited to see how they grow in the next few weeks. This was an easy and satisfying start to my herb garden."

— Lita R. (5/5)

Easy to grow. Low effort plant.

"The seeds are package on the normal envelope style. The instructions say to plant in spring or early fall in a 12”+ pot. I received the seeds in the summer and planted them then. I also planted them in a small pot. It was very easy process. Put the soil on the pot, add seeds and another layer of soil. I left them outside on my deck. There was a lot of rain and after 3 weeks the seeds sprouted. Planting information on the envelope says the days to germinate is 10-15. Which seems accurate. Per the package the spearmint should be ready to harvest in 60 days."

— Shay (5/5)

Smell Great

"I planted the Ferry-Morse Spearmint Seeds in a small pot on my patio, and they started sprouting in just about a week. The germination rate was great, almost all the seeds came up, which was a nice surprise. The plants have been growing fast and healthy with very little effort, just regular watering and some sun. The scent is amazing, fresh, clean, and minty, and the leaves taste great in tea or as a garnish. One thing to note is that spearmint grows quickly and spreads like crazy, so I’d recommend using a container unless you want it taking over your garden. Overall, a solid pick if you're looking to grow your own fresh mint at home. Super low maintenance and really satisfying to have on hand."

— Linhl (5/5)

Great Seeds!

"Thanks to Influenster and Ferry-Morse for the gifted seeds. All opinions are my own. My spearmint is still growing but hopefully it will be harvestable soon. It already smells wonderful. The instructions were clear and this was easy to manage. I wish there had been more information on management though."

— Kim (4/5)
