Yerbabuena o Hierba buena

Question

Necesito conseguirla, pero el diccionario de Ingles me da Menta o Peppermint. La Hierba Buena que yo conozco de latinoamerica es diferente.

Answer 1

No te preocupes, aqui en México las dos son distintas, hasta en el sabor. Y probablemente no se conoce en muchos países en forma natural debido a su cultivo y el medio ambiente, cualquiera de las dos. En cualquier libro de herbolaria las encuentras.
Hierbabuena (menta piperita)
Menta (calamintha macrostoma)
Lo que las hace afines es que el aceite esencial de ambas se le denomina como menta.

Answer 2

I will tell you, I found Yerba Buena! and in the process I also got some FREE weed from the guy that sells the plants at the nursery!!! He insisted that whatever it was I needed the Yerba Buena for, better was WEED! ( LOL) go figure.

Thank you for all yr help! it is appreaciated.

Answer 3

But what did you find at a nursery? That is, what is the English (or scientific) name of the plant you found/were searching for?

To summarize: You told us you need to obtain some yerba buena. You were told by different people that it is called yerba buena and mint in English (obviously referring to different plants). You then said that you were still looking for the name, thus implying that our answers were not satisfactory. Now you say you have found the plant, but don't tell us what you found.

Answer 4

Maybe what Adriana seeks is "Yerba mate" that is used in South America.

Well, she is never going to get good answers as long as she withholds the information we need to provide them. Plant names vary widely with locale and culture, and we don't know why she needs the plant, so it is no surprise that people have given up trying to answer. (Actually, we have already given her some good answers, but she doesn't tell us exactly why she thinks those answers were unsatisfactory.)

Answer 6

Maybe what Adriana seeks is "Yerba mate" that is used in South America.

Answer 7

Answer 8

1) Lots of places in lots of countries. If you're interested in finding out something about a particular person, you can click on their "photo" (in any thread) and view their "home page" (which usually indicates their location).
2) Pretty much any question relating to the Spanish/English language.

Answer 9

He was joking, honestly. (And he makes fun of himself much more than he teases anyone else, so don't get too upset.)
