PEPPERMINT LEAVES WHOLE

The leaves of this kind of mint are short but distinctly stalked, 2 inches or more in length, their margins finely toothed, their surfaces smooth, both above and beneath, or only very slightly, hardly visibly, hairy on the principal veins and mid-rib on the underside. The stems, 2 to 4 feet high, are quadrangular, often purplish.
