Default Mint Containment

Careful, Jim. Mint will run underground and suddenly appear on the other
side of your driveway, sidewalks and outbuilding.


It hasn't in 20 yrs. Actually it must be fairly weak [it *is* on the
north side of the shed] because I actually have to weed that spot--
Motherwort and Garlic Mustard would take over if I didn't watch it.

OTOH-- I don't care if it jumps the sidewalks or driveway as it would
end up in lawn and I'd get to mow it.g
