The previous owner of this house planted mint in the ground around this site over 12 years ago and it keeps coming back. It’s not taking over or anything but it persistently pops up here and there. Just amazing how hardy and well adapted to this site it is. Wish everything was this easy to grow :)

Hell yeah, I’m rooting for that mint.

I thought I killed a potted mint plant. By all appearances it was dead. I threw it in the big leaf and garden waste pile I have on the outskirts of my property. Lo and behold, it is thriving out there this year.

We have a mint of unknown origin and it basically didn’t do anything for months because it was too cold. Now that it’s warmer it’s starting to take off and provide some nice leaves for drinks.
