My mother has asked me to grow her some mint for her iced tea. She

So, would that be _Mentha arvensis_?

A google of "common mint" also turns up _Menthe cordifolia_ as well.

And I'm getting Menth* with both an "e" and an "a"

Do we have any mint experts here?

"Just plain mint" would be spearmint. (You don't have to tell your mother
that.) HTH :-)
