The part about mint spreading is the most important! That stuff will take over your entire flower bed or garden in a single season. I yanked all of mine out because of how invasive it was.

I am not a beginner Gardener and have always grown my mint in containers because of this. But I'm actually debating letting the mint take over my yard on purpose and I'm looking for legit reasons that I actually should not....

[@AnadonAyleid]

​@@hannahwynne1922Because it will take over your neighborhood... even if you don't even let it take over your garden bed! Mind finds a way! :

Thanks for the information

[@perkyplantparent]

Of course, thank you for watching

[@jakelangevin301]

You will have mint everywhere unless you put it in a pot. Even then it’ll still get everywhere. The only reason you should be planting this is when your lease is up on the house and you want to mess with the landlords gardens. Because everyone hates landlords

good info but the background music choice was a bit strange for a gardening video with a white lady
