There are about 15 different forms of mint. Peppermint has a very strong fragrance, and is best for drying. Peppermint is used in toothpaste, gum, etc., because of its long-lasting flavor. Spearmint is a bit milder and is good for using fresh as is apple mint which has fuzzy leaves. Lemon mint contains citronella and repulses mosquitoes and other flying insects.
