Most mint will take over everyting if you do not keep it under control. It
is best kept in some sort of container otherwise you will be lumbered with
trying to dig it out for ever. Hope tis helps you.


I planted mine in a Belfast sink. The hens have kept it under control, in
fact they've cleared it completely. I thought that was impossible!

There's one new plant growing in the nearby veg. plot which is protected
from the hens, it's safe there. The sink didn't stop it spreading :-(
