The article is not properly associated with the taxobox which refers to M. vulgaris. As the name mint is not restricted t o one species, it should be removed. I'm also not sure that there is a currently acknowledged species called vulgaris. Imc 10:00, 3 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Oregon

Isn't most of the mint used in America and Canada grown in a small valley in the mountains of Oregon? --McDogm 18:47, 16 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Part of the article is identical to McCormick - Spice Encyclopedia - Mint:

Mint is native to Europe and Asia and was previously grown in convent gardens. Today, Mint is commercially cultivated in the United States and Egypt.

I would like to rectify it, but I don't know enough about the topic. --Anonymous

Spearmint? Peppermint?

The two most common/popular mint plants/flavors in the English-speaking world are conspicuously absent from this article. Is there some specific subcategory of "mint" the article addresses, or have they just been overlooked?

I'm pretty sure they belong here, so I'm adding them. If they don't, just chop it out again... Kaz 05:22, 15 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
