Peppermint Plant Doesn’t Look Like Pictures

Question

Hi, so I recently bought two peppermint plants a few months ago. They have been growing rapidly. I noticed, however, when searching how to properly care for them they do not look anything like the photos of normal peppermints plants. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong! I need help figuring out why they look this way and not the way I see other photos of peppermint plants look. Thank you.
